      Verdict

      Winning hurdler Diamond's Return makes his debut on the Flat but may find a couple of these too quick over the trip. He's A Striker is certainly consistent but probably lacks the scope of some of today's rivals while Flashheart disappointed at Newmarket in October after a promising start at Newbury. Tinghir didn't run badly over the distance at HQ following a second at Kempton, however, while there are possibilities about Luca Cumani's newcomer Sleeping Giant. But MUSIKHANI ran well for a long way in the Tattersalls Millions at Newmarket on his return to action and has the beating of Enaitch on that run. He'll strip fitter here and should go very close.
