        Verdict

        Saameq was a decisive winner last time and can follow up here at the expense of Buz Kiri and Vanilla Moon. Ian Semple's gelding was evidently well tuned-up for his all-weather debut after a five-month break, he came from off a decent pace to win with something to spare. There should be more to come from him. Buz Kiri hasn't raced since winning at Bath in May and has also put in some decent performances on the all-weather if he is fit following his long holiday he should go close. Vanilla Moon hails from a yard that does well with it's all-weather runners and she has contested much better events in the past, she should be capable of taking a hand in the finish. Dubai Dreams was successful last time and is another to consider in a wide open affair, but Saameq is on an upward curve and is taken to oblige.
