Racing Post verdict
Third-partyDuraji is the selection, narrowly ahead of Bahadur by just a single pound on our figures, with Ride The Thunder (97) and Team Player (93) both well enough in on our book to be considered. It is desperately tight at the top of these ratings for this seven-runner Class 2 over today's 16f, which is reflected in only low confidence behind the pick. Bahadur, in particular, looks the biggest threat to Duraji given how close these two are rated, with Ride The Thunder and Team Player next in line.
