Verdict
ARABIAN OASIS disappointed at Haydock in September having gone very close on his racecourse debut at Newmarket earlier. The Godolphin charge is taken to make a winning return with his stablemate North America hard to fancy on last year's poor debut effort. Madakheel finished closer on her reappearance at this track and is preferred to Heat Storm while Sonnythenavigator makes more appeal than Raised Hope of the newcomers.
