Verdict

Mudallel was an eye-catching winner over this C&D and remains one to keep on the right side of but he will face a stiff challenge from SHADOW WARRIOR who was luckless behind him in defeat and likewise has shown a consistent level of form on the AW. Wicker holds place possibilities again if ready after a lengthy break while Makaarim faces more realistic opposition and the stiffer test should be in his favour. An expensive purchase, Qaroun isn't one to give up on just yet, however his last two runs and breeding suggest a drop back in distance may suit further down the line.
  1. Shadow Warrior
  2. Mudallel
  3. Makaarim
