Rich And Famous had half-a-length to spare over Quiet Endeavour over the course and distance a fortnight ago with WAY OF WISDOM finishing strongly but a further three lengths back in third. Wufud was a place behind and looks held. The third is the only one of the quartet not to have had a previous run and could reverse the form. Zainhom is the class act of the race having competed at Group 1 level last winter though he's had 36 career starts and never raced over a trip this short. Miniaturist has been mainly operating at Al Ain and Sharjah throughout his career and won over 7f on the former track on Saturday, though is now 7lb higher.
