Verdict

The well-bred SUPERIOR CHOICE looked a fine prospect when winning at Leicester last time and he should be able to concede a penalty to chief rival Hatteen.

1	1,100,000 gns Dubawi colt of a Group 1 winning dam. Built on debut promise when landing 6-runner maiden at Leicester (1¼m) 55 days ago, overcoming the run of the race in the manner of a smart prospect.

Sent off a short price but was held back by inexperience when 8½ lengths fifth of 6 to Superior Choice in maiden at Leicester (1¼m, good to firm) on debut 55 days ago.
