In depth
Verdict
Burauq has been thereabouts over 6f lately and has done all his winning to date over that trip. Tasaaboq was narrowly beaten the last time he raced over this track and trip and Broughtons Fancy is better than her latest effort at Newcastle suggests. But PRINCE JAI finished well ahead of Binky Blue when runner-up here earlier and this is easier than his recent tasks. He should go close with an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause and gets the nod.
