Satish Seemar has three of the six entries. Tadhg O'Shea was on board for all of Al Maroom's five runs here last winter including in a Group 3 but jumps ship to ride FUTURE VISION for the yard. A disappointing type for Godolphin in the UK last year he must be expected to do better and can see off a challenge from another stablemate in Line Of Attack, another former Godolphin inmate. Makashi was placed four times for the Crisford's in the UK and looks best of the remainder.
