Verdict
The betting suggested DUBAI WELCOME (NAP) had retained all his ability when sent off favourite on his first outing since 2020. He found one too good over track and trip on that occasion but will be sharper for this. Lady Percival will also have come on for a recent comeback third at Lingfield and can figure while Nao Da Mais went close over a shorter trip here a week ago. Roscioli is upped in class and Motazzen and Findono are upped in distance.
