11/4
Won first 4 starts over 5f/6f and was admirably consistent in the top sprints since. Ended his time with Archie Watson with a lesser run at Ascot, but should be ready to go on debut for another top stable.

20/1
Smart sprinter who was better than ever when landing a handicap off 105 at Kempton in March. Respectable effort a Newcastle since and just as good on turf, so not discounted.

10/1
Smart sprinter who bagged his second success of 2021 in Group 3 at Deauville (6f) in August. Powered home when a narrow second in the Abernant Stakes at Newmarket last time, and now has blinkers on.

Real improver for current yard in 2021, landing the Portland at Doncaster before following up in Group 3 company at Newbury. Disappointing return at Newmarket but can't be written off.

Looked potentially top class when landing the Gimcrack as a 2yo and got his career back on track hen third to Creative Force in The Champions Sprint Stakes at Ascot 6 months ago. Still relatively unexposed.

Highly progressive before his form tailed off towards the end of last season. Respectable effort in the Turf Sprint Cup at King Abdulaziz 74 days ago, but will need to be at his very best to land this.

9/1
Landed 9-runner listed race at Lingfield in February, then just failed to get up in All-Weather Sprint Championships at Newcastle next time. Could get involved if they go hard up front.

Smart mare who didn't need to improve to land a minor event at Newcastle last time. Likeable sort but others have more ability.

15/2
Likeable filly who took her form to a new level when landing the Bengough Stakes at Ascot in the autumn. Backed that up with a good fifth in Champions Sprint Stakes at same course, and may well make a better 4yo.

Forecasts

Minzaal (11/4), Dragon Symbol (11/4), Happy Romance (5/1), Highfield Princess (11/2), Vadream (15/2), Spycatcher (9/1), Garrus (10/1), Emaraaty Ana (10/1), Rohaan (18/1), Ejtilaab (20/1), Hurricane Ivor (40/1)

Verdict

MINZAAL is less exposed than most and looks the type to do better still this year so, back at the scene of his impressive Gimcrack victory in 2020, he gets the nod ahead of Dragon Symbol and Spycatcher, who are both likeable, tough sprinters.
