In depth

Verdict

Seef put in a fair effort last time and should appreciate a similar trip here. But any softening in the ground would be a concern and leave him vulnerable to a strong finisher. Suez Tornado could fit the bill and exploit any weakness if Seef is not up to scratch today. Lanmire Leader could also give him something to think about if he handles the step up in trip.
