    Verdict

    Tax Enough has shown nothing to suggest he's good enough to land this and the newcomer Rudi Five One will need to be above average to make a winning debut. Showpiece should give another good account but has returned a losing favourite in both starts now after his latest third over track and trip and SAFETY CHECK makes more appeal. The latter ran well over 6f at Haydock on his debut and with a winner having already come out of the race, Saeed Bin Suroor's colt can go one better and open his account.
