Al Ain Race 6 - Race 6 Mdn Stakes
HM SHAMAEL (5) showed talent in her initial prep when still on the weak side before going for a spell on April 11, after a modest effort out of her class over 1200m at Abu Dhabi. She will be stronger now, and the booking of top hoop Tadhg O'Shea is a strong lead. She resumes in her rightful maiden grade, and will be ready to rumble. DHABIAT BAYNOUNAH (12) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Abu Dhabi. She will have a fitness edge over some of her main rivals, and should not be a maiden for much longer. AL DESTOOR (1) is on debut for the H Al Marar stable. Six-year-old gelding by Al Mourtajez from Halla. Can measure up. Betting crucial. WHATEVERR (10) is back after a break of 7 months. At her last run before the layoff she finished ninth over 1600m at Abu Dhabi. She has matured since then, and is worth keeping safe in all top 4 combos. Something for the Multiples: YAS AL GHARBIA (11)

This Al Mourtajez gelding is a six-year-old having his first start. Likely to come in for support.
