Verdict

AF MUNAFEYA (9) continues to race well with a win two back at Jebel Ali before finishing less than a length away in second last time over 5f at this track. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Hard to beat. AF YARTAAD (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1m at this track. He strips fitter and can feature. NAMROOD (1) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when finishing well back over 7f at Group 2 level at Meydan Dirt. Has further improvement to come and is ready to show what he can do. RB SARAB (8) turned in a fine effort to win by nearly a length here over this distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Looks well placed, so expect another big run.
