Verdict

Doug Watson has four entries with both Wareeb and SARI DUBAI having won on the same card three weeks ago. The former gained his second victory of the season over this trip though on Dirt while the latter, who had been frustrating, finally got off the mark on Turf and Pat Dobbs keeps the ride. Zucchini has suddenly found his form, winning a Jebel Ali handicap on Dirt then making all and battling on strongly over this track and trip. He's only been raised 2lb so should get competitive. The lightly-raced Windsor winner True Accolade has the scope to do better.
