Mohaather colt. Half-brother to smart 7.6f-1¼m winner Mujtaba and useful 7f winner Fakhama. Dam smart winner in South Africa (including Grade 1 1m events), stayed 1¼m. Interesting newcomer and the market should be revealing.

Forecasts

River King (15/8), Arabian Story (5/2), Competizione (5/2), Shimmering Spin (6/1), Summertime Blues (18/1), Mawood (25/1), Aqab (50/1), Double Meaning (50/1), Wood Whisperer (80/1), Jupiter Ammon (125/1), Sir Wootton (150/1), Rolling Luck (200/1), Emperor's Logic (250/1), Kilima (250/1), Armathia (250/1)

Verdict

This looks between RIVER KING and Competizione, both of whom pulled well clear of the rest when finding just one too good at Nottingham and Doncaster respectively earlier this month. Choosing between them is not at all easy, with River King shading preference. Newcomer Mawood is appealing on paper and it'll be interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting.

  1. River King15/8
  2. Competizione5/2
  3. Mawood25/1
