      Verdict

      Dubai Twilight should have an exciting future ahead of him and he gets the confident vote ahead of Little Miss Tara. Barry Hills' charge made his debut in a Listed contest at Newbury and was only beaten two lengths. He then finished second in a quality Leicester maiden and should take all the beating today. His stable had a good winner on Thursday with a similar horse returning to the racecourse and with the step up in trip likely to suit, he cannot be opposed. Little Miss Tara has some fair form from last season but looks up against it here and may be more interesting next time out. Easterly Breeze is an interesting newcomer however his trainer is yet to hit form and he may be all the better for this run, whilst Miss Invincible will need to step up on her debut to gain some place money today. To summarise, this is all about one horse, and Dubai Twilight gets the confident vote.
