SARI DUBAI looked likely to win a fortnight ago when making most and leading in the straight but was collared close home by Emdakam. Made In Dubai, who came wide into the straight, had every chance but couldn't close the gap on the runner-up and was beaten a length. Golden Arch was always in the front rank and struck the front in the straight before run out of it close home last month and is closely matched with Klimt Street, who was only a head behind. Fusion Gold has done all of his racing at Jebel Ali and will need to improve while Barq Al Emarat hasn't raced since his debut at Newcastle in June.
