A competitive conditions event with the vote in favour of LUSAIL. He made quite a taking impression when making a winning racecourse debut at York 2 weeks ago, doing well to overhaul an experienced rival who had helped force the pace. The type to progress, he earns the vote to make it 2-2. Khunan, Ever Given and Angel Bleu are similarly progressive 2-y-os and head up the dangers.
