Verdict

Ralph Beckett’s stable hasn’t exactly been firing in the winners so far this season but it’s impossible to oppose DEODAR in this given he was only beaten a length in a Listed race here last season after a winning debut at Newbury. Kitaab already lacks a bit of scope but Selene's Dream has only had one run and He's So Brazen was third at Southwell, though was well beaten and looked a tricky ride.
