Verdict

Deira Dubai looks the form pick and is taken to land this at the expense of King's Icon and Atabaas Madness. The selection broke her maiden tag at Redcar on her eighth attempt. She had shown a decent level of form prior to that and she looks more than capable of winning more races off her current handicap mark. King's Icon had decent form as a two year old last year but has failed to live up to expectations this season. He has though slipped down the ratings as a result and is now running off a career low mark so any market support should be noted. Atabaas Madness is another that showed ability as a two year but has struggled slightly this season. He was well beaten at Ayr last time out and for that reason has to be treated with some caution. So for the winner we return to Deira Dubai.
