Verdict
Fidaawy romped home at Doncaster for an easy win but is upped in class and has a 12lb hike to contend with. In The Red has an absence to overcome and has gone up the same amount having ended last season with a double over shorter trips while New Caledonia hasn’t raced since May and has only won a maiden so far. Zhui Feng ran well in Listed company in France last week and can figure but YOU’RE HIRED is preferred, despite a 6lb rise in the weights. He scored in this grade over track and trip last month to remain unbeaten this year and there should be more to come from him.
