Tawaazon heads this 15-runner five-furlong field at Naas on good ground, rated narrowly ahead of Caffu Zafeen and a more meaningful margin clear of the chasing pack, and that edge looks well-founded on the evidence of recent form. Caffu Zafeen is the most likely threat and deserves respect, while Reinforce and Hot To Foxtrot — rated level — could each make a case for a placing if the pace suits. Provided Tawaazon travels well on the good surface, there is little reason to look elsewhere. **Tawaazon** is our selection.
Racing Post pick: Tawaazon
