Abu Dhabi Race 5 - Race 5 - Al Asayl Maiden Stakes Div 1
FURYNOCTURN DARTEO (3) was below his best here last start when finishing sixth, but his prior form suggests he's capable of much better. This is a race he can absolutely win if he rebounds to his usual level. FA'ADHEL (6) returned from a spell with a strong second over 2200m at this track, beaten 2.25L. This looks a touch easier, and he's one of the key chances with natural improvement. ZAWAN DE MIREVAL (12) was beaten by a nose over 1600m here last start and now drops in grade, which makes him very hard to beat if he holds that form. SOWWAN (11) also comes through that same race, finishing just over a length away from the winner in second. He is ideally placed again and should give this a serious shake.
