Verdict

John Gosden's TAZEEZ has plenty in hand on official BHA ratings, has been placed in group races in his last four starts, and has an obvious chance of opening his account for the season in this conditions race to give his in-form handler another winner. Saeed Bin Suroor's Layali Al Andalus has been well held in both outings this term and is hard to recommend on recent form so a bigger threat may come from David Elsworth's Fair Trade, who has been beaten a length in his last two starts, latterly in a Group 3 race at Salisbury, and he should be thereabouts again. Harry Dunlop's Green Moon seemed not to handle the testing going at Haydock, while Steele Tango is capable but has disappointed of late.
