Dax Race 9 - Prix Akbar
AL KHBAIB (1) won tackling 1500m at Tarbes two starts ago and was then fifth in G3 company. Leading player back in calmer waters. ASH'RAQAT (2) was fourth behind the top selection at Tarbes but was then comfortably on top when winning over course and distance more recently. Might close the gap. SAAFEER (3) has finished placed in both starts to date (including when second to ASH'RAQAT on debut) and represents an outfit that are always to be feared in Arabian races. Highly respected. Supplementary entry HM JAZIAH (6) might be best of the rest.

Comes off a 50 day let-up. Most recently second last in a small field at Bordeaux in G3 on May 4 over 1600m, 4 len behind Sirene Al Maury carrying 56kg at $5.90. Before that won by 0.8 len at Tarbes April 13 over 1500m defeating Asma Al Shahania carrying 58kg at $11. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.

Useful type. Resumes off a 53 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 3 len at this track May 1 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Saafeer carrying 54kg at $4.50. The start before that 4th of 12 at Tarbes on April 13 over 1500m, 1.4 len behind Al Khbaib with 55kg at $22. Confidence high so a repeat performance is on the cards.
