Forecasts

Bilhayl (11/8), Razeen Dubai (7/2), Leading Spirit (5/1), Green Team Station (9/1), Al Hadeer (12/1), Major Cinnamon (14/1), Good Time Gal (14/1), Davy Lamp (22/1), Persian Empire (22/1), Fall Of Rome (33/1), Ayaad (33/1), Way of Wisdom (40/1)

Verdict

RAZEEN DUBAI couldn't satisfy backers when behind Bilhayl last time but is worth siding with to reverse the form. Bilhayl can go well again despite a big hike in the weights, while Leading Spirit also commands a closer look.

  1. Razeen Dubai7/2
  2. Bilhayl11/8
  3. Leading Spirit5/1
