Al Ain Race 5 - Purebred Arabian Maiden Stakes - Dirt
ALSHAFAQ (4) was well in commission last start over 2000m at this track when eighth. He certainly deserves another chance, so stick with him and follow your money. ABBAB (1) faced the starter for the first time and finished eighth last start at Abu Dhabi over 1600m. Likely improver who is worth another chance. SHA'AN (2) returned from a break last start and was having his first run on dirt for a new stable when finishing a sound fourth over 1800m at this track. Drawn to go forward, and he will be in this for a long way. WHATEVERR (14) finished second last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Steps up a level, but she is capable of another big run.
