Ombudsman (5/4), Almaqam (7/4), Enfjaar (7/1), Ancient Wisdom (8/1), Military Order (11/1), Bolster (12/1), Cicero's Gift (14/1), Persica (14/1), Phantom Flight (22/1), Aafoor (200/1)
Having shaped encouragingly when third on his return over C&D last month, ALMAQAM looks the way to go. Indeed, on that evidence he could still be progressing and the 4-y-o is taken to inflict a first career defeat on Ombudsman, who has to be respected given his 100% record and potential. William Buick prefers Military Order ahead of Ancient Wisdom and understandably so, on the back of the former's tidy reappearance success on the all-weather.
