Verdict

FAHAD hasn't been seen to best effect on either of his starts in handicaps, and there's every chance a recent gelding operation may bring about improvement too, so he receives the vote to come out on top. Sweet Reward is going the right way and could progress again, while it would be no surprise to see Puerto Banus bounce back from a below-par display last time.

  1. FAHAD
  2. SWEET REWARD (IRE)
  3. PUERTO BANUS
