Newbury
Sat 18th Jul

Formscan  - Persica sets the standard and only found a progressive rival too good when second in a similar event at Sandown a couple of weeks ago. That said, marginal preference is for SILAWI, who was hugely progressive last year and won the Canadian International at Woodbine in October. He may not have been at his best in Riyadh last time but he was second to Opera Ballo in the Jebel Hatta in January and that form is very strong. All of the remainder are capable of going well, but Al Zanati is the pick of them.
