Verdict
BAIHAS cost 210,00gns as a yearling and, with that kind of an outlay, connections will be expecting a return on their investment sooner rather than later. He should make a winning start in this though Deira Phantom is also bred to appreciate this sort of trip and Tefflah was very green on his debut at Lingfield. The latter will know more today but it's difficult to make a case for Gerrards Cross on what he's shown so far and Dark Rumour was a very cheap purchase.
