A trappy handicap to close the card and from a shortlist of Deira Dubai, Onenightinlisbon and Carmanero we will side with DEIRA DUBAI. The selection scored nicely at Redcar last time when she beat Ancient Cross. Now that she has lost her maiden tag she could be worth sticking with on her handicap debut. Onenightinlisbon ran well here in a handicap last time when she chased home King's Wonder. The draw is not ideal tonight though and at the forecast odds she could be one to swerve. Carmanero finished fourth behind Landucci here last time but he was squeezed for room at a key stage in the race and it was a creditable effort under the circumstances. Green Diamond has a good draw and the yard are in form so he could provide the each-way value in the race.
