        Verdict

        This looks to be between Chinalea, Rusky Dusky, Regal Dream and Munaddam and we will side with the latter. Godolphin's tremendous season just seems to go on and on, and this Aljabr colt has run well in coming home second in his only two starts to date. On the first occasion he was just headed close home at Yarmouth, while last time he was finishing well when the post came too soon. If he runs up to the level he did there, or improves slightly then he has every chance, and with Frankie Dettori taking the mount the confidence is reaffirmed that he can get it right this time. Chinalea is entitled to be involved if he can step up on a pleasing debut, when fifth of 16 here over course and distance. He was green enough that day and a fortnight on we should see the benefit of that run. On the other hand Rusky Dusky has had plenty of opportunities but still not managed to get his head in front. Even so, he has performed well in better company than this and will appreciate the drop in class after finishing sixth in the St Leger Yearling Stakes at Doncaster last time. Don't rule him out. Of the others, Regal Dream made a marked improvement last time at Epsom and with the runner up that day having come out and won again since, he looks capable of going very close here, but preference is for Munaddam, who can keep the Saeed Bin Suroor bandwagon rolling on.
