Verdict

DARK SAFFRON (2) had been rock-solid with three placings in a row before finishing fifth over 5f on the turf track here last start. Has never been out of the placings in four starts at this journey and in an easier contest, he is the one to beat. AWAB (1) met with solid support last start over 7f at this track when fourth, beaten 7 lengths. He has a better draw this time and can figure in the top 3 here. ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU (4) fought on well for second last start over 1 ³/16m in the G3 UAE Oaks at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Bernardo Pinheiro stays on. She is down sharply in distance but is still a winning threat. ELUSIVE TREVOR (7) is a first starter by Belardo out of Bonding. Sure to have come on from a recent trial. It is worth noting Tadhg O'Shea is in the saddle. Use the market as your best guide.
