Forecasts

God Of Fire (5/2), Sniper's Eye (5/2), Al Khawaneej Storm (6/1), Al Alaali (7/1), Another Dimension (15/2), Regal Empire (12/1), Chronograph (16/1), Fair Dinkum (25/1), Aclaimed Art (28/1), Juney (33/1), African Star (80/1), Deep Spirit (125/1)

Those with experience don't set the bar too high here so it could pay to look at well-related newcomers SNIPER'S EYE and Al Khawaneej Storm to fight out the finish. Preference is for David Simcock's Expert Eye colt who fetched 160,000 euros as a 2yo ahead of Kevin Philippart de Foy's son of Sea The Moon. God of Fire appeals as the pick of those to have run for place purposes.
