AL SHABABI (3) is back from a six-and-a-half-month spell, and he does run well first-up, including a win over 1637m at Windsor at the start of last prep. Expected to feature at his first local start. HOT DANCER (1) was well supported when resuming last time out over 2000m at this track and proved too strong, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement, and this looks well within his grasp. SKY ADVOCATE (2) is an imported three-year-old having his first run in this area for the Ali Abdulmajeed yard. Scored at his last run over 1408m at York nine weeks ago. Hasn't trialled publicly for the new connections, but he should feature in the finish. FLEET ADMIRAL (4) has not appeared since he finished third over 1800m at this track on April 4. Makes plenty of appeal.
