Verdict

Doug Watson has a very strong hand here and MIDNIGHT SANDS should build on his debut when always thereabouts over the 7f trip but just unable to peg back Tabarak. The stable's Coded was also prominent throughout over the same trip when fourth a month ago and had produced a better run on his debut over today's trip in November. Manhunter finished just in front in the former of those races and should continue to make progress while Jaarim made a bright start to his career over Jebel Ali's stiff 5f in November and will be sharper for the experience. Al Mustashar has had more experience than most of these though ran his best race to date over the trip at Jebel Ali in January. Shanaghai City looks best of the remainder.
