Verdict

This is a high quality event for an all-weather handicap, and there are a number of fascinating contenders. Chief among them is ELTEZAM, who had some fantastic form at the highest levels as a juvenile before injury forced him to miss his entire Classic season. He didn't run very well on return at Wolverhampton last time out, but he probably found the 7f stretched his stamina, not to mention the fact he was more than entitled to need the run. If able to sit off what should be a strong pace and finding himself fitter than that comeback, he could easily return to form here with Frankie Dettori a great choice of jockey for the job. C&D specialist Eljaddaaf and the consistent Fast Track are others to consider.
