      In depth

      Verdict

      Meshakel made all for an impressive victory over 7f three weeks ago and the former Mark Johnston inmate will take some catching in that form. After an easy victory over 6f at Jebel Ali, MOUHEEB stepped up to this trip here and came with a late run to almost snatch the spoils with the previously unbeaten Zhou Storm 7 lengths behind with Grand Dubai upsides. That could be good enough for this as Uncle Hamed has never raced beyond 6f though Naval Crown will have been identified as a possible for this after two Group 3 placed efforts in France following a York maiden victory though this is his debut on Dirt.
