Verdict

FUJAIRA PRINCE is difficult to oppose having romped home by six lengths at Wetherby on his return to action. Serious opposition is thin on the ground and Roger Varian’s grey can land this on his way to better things. Qasr has placed on a couple of occasions which more than the rest have managed to date though Sharp Reply finished closer at Thirsk last time and Hattaab debuts on the Flat having been well beaten over hurdles so far this year.
