None of those with experience have pulled up any trees so far though the likes of Geomatrician, High Commissioner and Orchidia are all likely improvers. There are two running in the blue of Godolphin with newcomer DUBAI TRADITION looking the pick on jockey bookings ahead of Najib. Adam Kirby’s mount is out of a dam that has produced winners at this trip. Rab Havlin rides Arabist rather than Logician of the two Gosden runners and he’s a half-brother to a 1m4f winner so also enters calculations.
