Verdict

Unforgiving Minute won over a mile at Lingfield last month and beat the returning Horsted Keynes in a claimer last year. Qeyaadah has been threatening a return to winning ways with recent placed efforts while Qaffaal is not easily overlooked back down in class with an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause. Poet's Society has a shout back on the all-weather today but FAST LANDING (NAP) has the most scope of these having placed at Newcastle in his reappearance and Saeed bin Suroor’s charge gets the vote handicapping for only the second time.
