Forecasts

Sari Dubai (5/2), Zucchini (9/2), Kanood (6/1), Mordin (15/2), True Accolade (10/1), City King (12/1), Qareeb (14/1), Ides Of August (14/1), Deciduous (16/1), Al Maysan (16/1), Turjomaan (18/1), Saqqara King (20/1)

Verdict

SARI DUBAI looks first choice on jockey bookings of Doug Watson's string and he can make it 2 from 2 on turf. Zucchini has a small rise in the weights to overcome but makes most appeal of the remainder, while Ides of August has the form in the book to make him competitive in a rather open race.
