Century Dream (2/1), Moolazim (7/2), Materialist (4/1), Helovaplan (5/1), Mustarrid (11/2), Casimiro (12/1), Ahlan Bil Zain (14/1)

Ahlan Bil Zain represents the yard who landed this two years ago. There appear to be valid excuses for his three defeats this term and his defeat of Mister Manduro last term shows him to be on a handy mark. His defeat on heavy ground causes concern if rain continues to fall but he is one to note in advance trading. Moolazim was impressive last time and but is raised in class on softer ground. The ground is and issue too for Mustarrid. Century Dream has few fears in that regard but the fitting of a hood having conceded in recent battles prompts us to side with HELOVAPLAN. He shoulders a penalty but is due to race off even higher marks after this. The dam's side of the pedigree raise hopes that he will handle these conditions and he could take some beating off his low weight.
