DUBAI HORIZON steps up in distance for his reappearance. He’s been gelded since finding one too good over 7f here in October and looks to have stronger form than Goodwood fourth Nathania. One of the newcomers could prove a bigger threat given Intellect is a half-brother to four winners including a Group 2 winner while the Japanese-bred Impact Point, a son of the brilliant Deep Impact, is in the Derby and preferred to Akamanto.
