Abu Dhabi Race 2 - Race 2 - The Crescent Light Listed Stakes - Turf
AJRAD ATHBAH (1) is a consistent performer who doesn't win out of turn, but rarely runs poorly. He again found one too good over 2200m at this track last start and drops into a slightly easier assignment here. With similar form, he sets up as the one to beat. BAHWAN (2) resumes off a four-month break, having produced a dominant three-length victory in a comparable race at his only run last preparation. Possessing a high cruising speed, he is likely to take catching if forward enough. ALMOTAWASSIM (7) was impressive when scoring by 1.75 lengths over 1700m at Sharjah Equestrian & Racing Club last start. He boasts an excellent record at this course with three wins from six attempts, and on peak ratings has genuine winning claims. RB YAS SIR (4) was well held when eighth, beaten six lengths, over this course and distance last time. Drawn wide again but has the early pace to offset the barrier and settle prominently. Capable of improving sharply and should not be underestimate
