Tadhg O’Shea has chosen LAKE CAUSEWAY of the Seemar contingent and his ultra-consistent mount can get off the mark at the 13th time of asking. He was having his first start on Turf when just failing to hold Nibraas at Abu Dhabi last time and can hang on here. Tahdeed finished fourth in that event and has to be considered though his stable companion, the newcomer Alhzeem, has a smart pedigree though may do better on the Dirt track. Sharp Spun has been staying on over the trip at Jebel Ali and may do better back on Turf for only the second time but Creek Horizon, who had run his best race to date when second there a couple of weeks ago, ran poorly on a return visit last week.
