In depth

Verdict

Royal Rattle looks best of David Barron's pair after a reasonable start at Newcastle earlier this month but Servilia was beaten a long way on her introduction here a fortnight ago. The front-running DUBAI ACCLAIM has twice been caught inside the final furlong at Newcastle, the latest over 7f, and this looks a good opportunity to get off the mark. Vj Day hasn't been beaten far in any of his races on Turf though comes up against a race-fit rival on his first start since August.
