        In depth

        Verdict

        AL RAYANAH runs the track well and she can take top billing here. George Produmou's mare wasn't disgraced at the track last time out but she's expected to take a step forward with Saleem Golam back on-board. Final Drive is well-handicapped and he is interesting after a break, Hellenio doesn't appear to have taken major steps forward since the application of a tongue-tie, whilst Midnight M is unexposed but she needs to improve markedly for this step up in trip on softer ground. In a race lacking strength in depth any market support for Jack Jicaro would have to be noted, as he returns from 746 days on the sidelines running for Nicky Vaughan for the first time.
