Verdict

Cash Luck, one of just two southern hemisphere-bred entries, disappointed behind Burano when favourite on his debut here and has no experience of the surface. The winner ran the only poor race of his career when tried on Tapeta last month and was a long way behind Kinglet and MICKDAAM, who fought out the finish. The runner-up, a lightly-raced colt, didn't enjoy the best of runs that day and was staying on so strongly over the mile trip that today's extra distance can see him reverse the form and take this. Counterglow won nicely here last week over 7f but will need to step up on that though he holds Fiscal on that run. Noor Zabeel hasn't been far behind both Kinglet and Burano in recent weeks and with the longer trip certain to suit he can get involved at a fair price as can Spanish raider Matusalen, who will have needed his opening effort.
