        Verdict

        This Classified Stakes race is a tight affair and it can go to can go to Makfool ahead of Material Witness, Kehaar and Golden Sahara. The selection has been running well this year and is now five pounds better off with Material Witness for the near five lengths he finished behind him in the Bunbury Cup last time. However, he looks to be better drawn today and should fare better. Maghanim was just behind the selection that day and reopposes on the same terms. Kehaar is two-from-two at present and, as they say, could be anything, and the Godolphin operation's Golden Sahara is lightly raced and probably has better to come. As we say, it's a tight affair and a number of the others can be given chances, so watch the betting but, we are happy to side with Makfool.
