Verdict

NARJES (NAP) has improved with every start and was beaten only a nose in a maiden race over track and trip last time. James Fanshawe’s filly can open her account now handicapping for the first time. Energia Flavio was placed here on his penultimate start while The Yellow Bus wasn’t far away when only fifth at Kempton in March. Here's Two has been thereabouts over a mile recently and the unexposed Dubai Art drops down in class after a couple of modest efforts in handicaps so far.
