        Verdict

        DUKHAN hasn’t raced since finishing a close-up fourth at Newmarket in July but he separated a couple of subsequent winners on that occasion and today’s extra distance should suit on his reappearance. Communique looks a threat on the evidence of a recent debut second here while Ryan Moore takes over the reins on Yarmouth fourth Cracker Factory and the latter makes more appeal than the other likely improvers Mutanaqel and Mekong.
