In depth
Verdict
Doug Watson has three entries and George Buckell was on board when MULFIT was an easy winner on his reappearance in November and his mount looks the pick of the trio. Woodditton beat him comfortably when making his debut here way back in 2019 and, though he hasn't won subsequently, showed up well in a couple of races last spring. Dalaalaat is inconsistent though would be a threat at his best but both of Attribution's victories have come at Jebel Ali and he's been well beaten in all four starts here. Knockacullion's last run came over 1m5f at Al Ain, where Anizzah gained his only success, and Tadhg O'Shea will bring his mount's stamina into play.
