PRAETORIAN (6) is in top form, most recently recording a win by a neck over 1200m at this track to make it two in a row. Drawn to go forward. Best figures should see him run well. SHANKO (3) was sent out at long odds last time but ran above expectations and won over 1351m at this track. Has the speed to be prominent and is expected to be figuring in the finish. SHAYEKH (9) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1200m at this track when beaten 2.75 lengths. Should be prominent from the outset. Capable of testing this field. SNAFIYA (10) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at RIYADH Dirt, most recently beaten 4 lengths into second over 1200m at RIYADH Dirt. Hard to leave out.
