Verdict
Dubai Surprise,Autumn Melody and Aldente look the principals in another competitive contest and the tentative vote goes to Dubai Surprise. The selection was a fair third on her debut behind Windscreamer, she is sure to have learnt from the experience and in what looks an easier race she is taken to score. Autum Melody rates the main danger on her best form but she has folded very tamely on both runs to date so she can not be backed with any confidence. Aldente is another worthy of respect as she is related to multiple winners so she is worth noting in the market. Of the remainder African Gift would have a chance on her debut run but disappointed last time and for the winner we return to Dubai Surprise.
