Verdict

SHARJAH is fancied to confirm Morgiana form with Zanahiyr and emulate Istabraq and the same yard's Hurricane Fly by becoming a 4-time winner of this race. Echoes In Rain wasn't seen to best effect when well behind that pair in the Morgiana and could get closer to them this time.

  1. SHARJAH (FR)
  2. ZANAHIYR (IRE)
  3. ECHOES IN RAIN (FR)
