    In depth

    Verdict

    Uncle Hamed found the progressive King Leo far too good at Jebel Ali after making a winning reappearance here last month. Al Nefud had three all-weather runs for Charlie Appleby in the spring, all over further where he led for a long way. ATLANTIC SKY tracked the leader and stayed on strongly to get up close home over 7f last month and the runner-up has won subsequently. He needs to improve again but should do so and gets the vote. Cocobai has run very poorly here the last twice and has questions to answer but Miami Joy, three-times a winner on Polytrack in the UK, can't have been right when tailed off here a fortnight ago.
