Forecasts

Fast Dancer (3/1), Dark Devil (3/1), Aasheq (9/2), Stonific (11/2), Mulligatawny (6/1), Mukhayyam (14/1), Rayaa (16/1), Critical Thinking (20/1)

Verdict

The frontrunning Mukhayyam should be thereabouts if breaking well from an ideal draw for one who likes to force the pace. Mulligatawny and hat-trick seeker Stonific are also considered, along with the nicely-treated Aasheq, but FAST DANCER and Dark Devil, who represents last year's winning stable, boast solid recent C&D form and the selection is taken to confirm those placings. Critical Thinking would be a big threat if proving as adept on turf as he is on the AW.
  1. Fast Dancer
  2. Dark Devil
