Apprentice jockey Saeed Al Mazrooei has already had five winners since completing his national service and should get a good ride from the consistent Still Life, who ran his best race to date at Jebel Ali on Friday. Libyan Peace was always in the front rank on that track a couple of weeks ago but could only stay on at one pace while Nomadic, who showed some potential for John Gosden, may need to acclimatise as his last run was at Kempton a year ago. Pradesh ran his best races in France on the all-weather but finished last on his debut here last month. RAINBOW TIGER has had four runs for three different trainers but almost brought off a shock victory when just touched off by Intense Effort at Jebel Ali. He would probably have won in a few more strides and can go one better.
