In depth
Verdict
Arabian Jazz has had a few chances but is usually thereabouts, though has a lower handicap rating than the less-exposed Mi Capricho and Oswald. Both the latter pair were second last time but Robyn Brisland’s grey is having a first run on Turf. All may be vulnerable against a couple of nicely-bred newcomers with Pelice a half-sister to five winners and from a stable whose two-year-olds are going well. Kevin Ryan’s HOW BIZARRE is a half-brother to Salateen, a winner twice at two and successful earlier this year in Listed company. The Society Rock gelding can make a winning start in this grade.
