Verdict
A modest contest where Dishdasha is expected to have benefited sufficiently from last week's reappearance to get the better of Haenertburg and Roko (the only runner in the field that has actually won a race so far). The former ran her best race so far when tried over an inadequate at Wolverhampton three weeks ago and holds solid place claims if repeating that performance here. However, the balance of form leaves her with a little to find and others make more appeal. Roko has plenty of experience to draw from and acts on the surface. He can go well for each-way players at a fair price. Zantero is another to bear in mind, as he does not have much to find to get competitive this afternoon. However, Dishdasha looks to be the most solid option after his sound effort in defeat last week and, as his 3lb claimer knows him well, this son of Desert Prince has too much in his favour to ignore in this company.
