    Verdict

    A competitive little heat for the grade. Faithful Ruler prevailed in a photograph when defeating UNLIMITED, who reopposes here, over C&D a fortnight ago and there should be little between them once again on these terms. Both have excellent course records but the latter may take revenge here in a race where there may be a lack of pace as he is equally effective over shorter trips and his turn of foot may prove decisive. Mighty Clarets remains perfectly consistent at this level and merits consideration whilst Khandaq cannot be discounted either after a recent solid effort behind Bawaardi at this venue.
