Dubai Success, Lost Soldier Three and Sendintank are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Dubai Success. The selection won well on heavy ground at Doncaster last time when beating Vinando. He is just as effective under today¿s conditions and with this step-up in trip likely to play to his strengths he is taken to score. Lost Soldier Three finished behind Sedintank at Doncaster last time but he has a nice pull in the weights with that rival today and should be capable of reversing the placings. Sendintank is a game and consistent performer and has improved dramatically over the last year. However, on these terms today the likelihood is that he will find a couple too good. High Action is a course and distance winner who put in an improved effort when fourth behind Millenary in a Group 2 race at Doncaster last time. If he reproduces that effort today he will not be far away at the finish. However, we are happy to return to Dubai Success who stands out as the one to beat.
