Race Tip

Progressive sprinter JARRAAF (6) deserves a chance among stakes company and could well prove equal to the task. Made light work of a competitive field in a course and distance handicap last time and with trainer Owen Burrows can continue his upward trajectory. ENGLISH OAK (2) hasn't gone on since his commanding Royal Ascot handicap triumph. Does command respect on ratings and looks interesting dropping to 6f after finishing second in the Listed Dubai Duty Free Cup at Newbury last time. After being well-beaten in the G1 Flying Five Stakes this represents a sizeable drop in grade for VADREAM (8) who will definitely relish conditions. PUROSANGUE (7) might give another decent account.
