Verdict

MEZNAH NF (8) has not appeared since she saluted over 7f at this track on April 3. She trialled up strongly recently with a win at Meydan on the dirt course there, and she will be ready to rumble fresh up in this. On top. AF ESTITAR (10) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 11, finishing well back over 1m at Abu Dhabi. He is stronger now, and is well worth including in all top 4 combos. MUHAREB BAYNOUNAH (6) resumes from a spell of 7 months and looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1 ?m at this track. Jockey Sandro Paiva is back aboard, and with the blinkers on, he has top 4 claims fresh up. AF ASYAF (5) finished midfield at his first run back from a spell last start over 1m at Abu Dhabi when in the market. His record here over the trip is strong, and he will be a quick improver. Stick with him on an each-way basis.
