Some appeal on paper but he ran to just a modest level on last month's Kempton debut (1m); this race lacks depth but he'll still need a good deal of improvement.

Hasn't won since making a winning hurdles debut at Stratford last July but shaped with promise after six-month break when staying on to finish third of nine on handicap debut at Worcester (2m, good) three weeks ago; Harry Cobden takes over for the first time and holds claims.

1m2f Flat winner who has yet to show anything of note over hurdles, including on handicap debut at Wincanton (1m7f, good) ten days ago; needs this step up in trip and the tongue-tie to spark considerable improvement.

Nibbled in the betting prior to her C&D debut (soft) 17 days ago and she showed clear promise, finishing her race off well when in the clear; should be more streetwise today and she has been found an uncompetitive maiden; leading claims.

Won the Group 1 Sun Chariot (1m, good to soft) against fillies and mares last October before third in this (soft; beaten about 6l); some strong form in defeat in Group 1 and Group 2 races during a light campaign this season but there's a suspicion she's vulnerable against males in this hot Group 1.

Very smart filly whose record of 141132 over 1m features a success in the Sun Chariot and a placed effort in the QEII last year; ran creditably, beaten just under 2l, behind Dancing Gemini at Sandown on reappearance when carrying a penalty; now gets a 5lb pull with that opponent and appears to have a fighting chance in the rematch; consistent and holds solid claims.

Verdict

Dubai Hills has achieved the most in terms of RPR but he’s been consistent rather than progressive and he’s not sure to need as stiff a test as this. Battle Of Omdurman could leave his debut run behind him but this looks best left to TAMFANA, a close third over C&D on last month’s debut.[Paul Smith]
