JADE DE FAUST (14) turned in a fine effort to score by one length at today's course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Likely to be there at the finish again. BASEQ AND BAKE (4) did well when resuming over 1200m at this track last start, finishing second and beaten one length. Overall record is sound when second-up and should be better for that first-up run. Among the leading chances. TURKI AL KHALEDIAH II (13) is resuming from a break of six-and-a-half months for a new stable after finishing eighth over 2100m in Group 1 class at Riyadh at his latest outing. Generally runs well when fresh with two wins and two minor placings from five runs. Expected to be in the finish. RAKOUD AL ANSARI (17) was safely held when eighth last start over 1400m here, beaten 16 lengths after a good first-up win at this venue. Worth plenty of thought.
