In depth
Verdict
Emblazoned opened his account when landing the odds over 7f at Lingfield last month but drops down in trip today. By contrast, Nearest Green steps up in distance having won on his debut over 5f at Newcastle in January and has been gelded since. ETISALAT got off the mark with a victory over today’s trip at Chelmsford in November where he beat a couple of subsequent winners. He gets the nod on his return given Dane O’Neill prefers him to Lashabeeh, who unseated at Lingfield earlier this month though finished in front of Dollar Value when runner-up at Kempton earlier. Harry's Bar is a brother to useful sprinter and stablemate Mazzini and a newcomer to note.
