SOVEREIGN SPIRIT (1) made it three wins in succession last time out when he scored by a nose over 2000m in Group 3 class at Sakhir. Faces an easier assignment so he is a big chance to add to the winning sequence. NATIVE AMERICAN (7) was far from disgraced when third last start after being in contention on the turn over 1800m at Meydan, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at Meydan the start prior. Going up a level this time but he cannot be underestimated. WAIT TO EXCEL (5) finished third last time over 2100m at this track, beaten 11 lengths. Finds a tougher race but a big run will not surprise. GRAN DESCANS (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 2100m at Group 99 level at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.
