In depth
Verdict
Kawasir has been knocking on the door on the all-weather but he has a Dirt pedigree so it will be interesting to see how he handles the switch to Turf. A daughter of Dubawi, Godolphin’s debutante Magical Touch would not need to be a world-beater to score but BORODIN showed enough at Beverley to suggest he can figure in a race like this and he might be the value. Juthoor never figured over 6f at Salisbury and may need more time.
