Trainer Charles Hills took this event in 2016 and he can follow up in this years renewal with the newcomer BIN DAAHIR. The selection is related to a couple of useful performers and his trainer has a good record with his two-year-old's so far in 2017. The experienced Last Page unseated his rider early on last time out and can finish second assuming that experience has had no ill-effects while Qaaraat was a beaten favourite at Newmarket on his second start last time out and can claim third for a second time.
