        Verdict

        Frontier Fighter ran nowhere his best in a couple of outings at Meydan in January but he won this contest last year off today's mark when beating Noble Citizen and stablemate Dubai Hills. David O'Meara's charge found Pearl Nation too good here in December but re-opposes on much better terms and should make a bold bid to repeat. Ifwecan has looked high enough in the weights since June's win at Musselburgh and makes his debut on the Fibresand and Loyalty is upped in class after scoring at Chelmsford. TWO MOONS is also facing a tougher task then when scoring over 7f here a fortnight ago but Brian Ellison's progressive charge saves his best for this track and should be in the mix.
