Verdict

Anaerobio won twice here last January before beaten around 3l by EASTERN RULES in this. The latter was again in front of his rival when runner-up to Safety Catch in the Group 2 Al Fahidi Sport last month and Mick Halford's charge is taken to come out on top again Dark Emerald finished runner-up to the in-form Belgian Bill over a mile then scored over 6f so this trip could be his best. Fils Anges ran very well here last month so it was no surprise when he landed a handicap a couple of weeks later though this is a much better class event. The former Aidan O'Brien-trained Fountain Of Youth looks to be slowly finding his feet and it would be no surprise to see him do better.
