        Verdict

        Most of these have won around here including Celtic Prince though his easy victory in February came at Jebel Ali. Down On Da Bayou was a superb three-year-old having won the Oaks here by 18 lengths. She didn't hit those heights subsequently though did win twice when dropped into this sort of grade at Jebel Ali. FAITHFUL SOLDIER only had four runs last winter scoring at Jebel Ali and here. He's the type to go on to better things starting here. Stablemate Far Sky's lone success last winter came at Sharjah after which he looked a bit high in the weights.
