Hucklebuck, Jabir and Skyrider occupied the minor berths in a similar race over 6f last month but all were beaten a long way and the form doesn't amount to much. Satish Seemar completed a double at Jebel Ali on Friday and has five entered here plus the first reserve Yulong Warrior, placed four times for Michael Halford in Ireland - he'd be the selection if getting a run. Doug Watson has made a flying start to the season and the champion UAE trainer has two entered here with the newcomer ROUGHER taken to make a successful start. He's by Lookin At Lucky, a three-times Grade 1 winner on artificial surfaces in the USA as a juvenile and proving a top-class sire of Dirt performers.
