        In depth

        Verdict

        The Seemar camp has three entries with Tadhg O'Shea on board DISCOVERY ISLAND, placed in four of five starts for Charlie Appleby and again on his debut at Abu Dhabi in January when attempting to concede the winner 15lb. Bawadi Sprit hasn't shown much improvement from a fair debut here in April while stablemate Benin, a recruit from Sir Mark Prescott, was beaten a very long way at Jebel Ali in October. Sheriffmuir was placed in his first five starts for John Gosden but has been well beaten in both UAE starts.
