In depth

Verdict

Jally and Cambre had decent form in France and the former has run in two much stronger races since arriving here. SHAMAAL NIBRAAS returned to winning ways on Dirt at Jebel Ali and is only 3lb higher. He's equally at home on Turf and is taken to complete the double in a race where many have questions to answer. Lehaaf gave a good account of himself when third to stablemate Almoonqith last time and Fils Anges, a winner for Michael Bell, showed he is going the right way with a close third over 6f two weeks ago. Ghaamer's best run for some time came on Dirt while Royal Revival disappointed last time after beating a decent field at Abu Dhabi but with Marc Monaghan's claim to aid his cause he should go well.
