In depth

Verdict

KHALEEJI finished runner-up twice in October and comes out best of those to have achieved a rating. The booking of Kieren Fallon suggests he's ready for action on his seasonal debut and he gets the nod. Sinadinou showed little in two starts last month and Ayr runner-up Bertiewhittle makes more appeal on his reappearance. Beautiful Day may do better on his turf debut, while Iceblast has claims on his debut third at York in October. Magic Rhythm is a half-sister to three-time winner and stablemate Magic Cat and could prove best of the newcomers.
