Forecasts

English King (5/4), Al Aasy (7/2), Mogul (9/2), Subjectivist (17/2), Khalifa Sat (9/1), Highland Chief (22/1)

Verdict

This is a very strong-looking contest for a Group Three, and at a big price Subjectivist cannot be ruled out with confidence after making no mistake from the front last time out. Al Aasy should have further progress left in him after dealing with the step up to this grade with the minimum of fuss recently, though a 3lb penalty makes life difficult. However, this contest is likely to be fought out between Khalifa Sat & ENGLISH KING with narrow preference for the latter. If he is back to the form of his Lingfield win, he will be extremely difficult to beat. The former is afforded major respect given the attitude he showed when winning at this track two starts ago.
  1. English King
  2. Khalifa Sat
  3. Al Aasy
