RANAAN scored over the track and trip in January and Tadhg O'Shea prefers him to Rayig, whom he has ridden to victory at Al Ain. His mount gets the nod as Street Mood is up 9lb after coming with a late run to score over 7f at Jebel Ali in March. Libyan Classic has struggled from a much higher mark after scoring at Jebel Ali in February while Triple Venture was staying on over 7f last week and has never raced over a trip this short. Catterick winner Beluga Gold was well beaten on his debut at Jebel Ali a couple of weeks ago but will have come on for the run.
