In depth
Verdict
ARABIAN OASIS (NAP) is 5lb higher than when third at Perth last time but drops back in grade for this and beat Cape Hideaway and Aza Run over a slightly shorter trip here last month - he looks the one to beat. Sweeping Rock may have been flattered by his second to an easy winner at Exeter and Beaumont's Party is usually worth opposing. Double Court is still 9lb higher than for his only win to date and his yard is struggling for winners at present.
