Verdict
Tarboosh won this in 2019 and is preferred to stablemate Indian Sounds but last year’s winner MAKANAH makes most appeal. It was soft ground on that occasion and Julie Camacho’s charge went close back here on his penultimate start. Roulston Scar arrives in fine form having won a couple of three-runner conditions races last month but the going is a worry for him while El Astronaute hasn’t been at his best lately. Mazalita is a half-sister to a 6f winner but could have been found a much easier opportunity on her debut and is worth a second glance.
