Bahrain Race 5 - Nbb Thara'a Cup Stakes

HOT DANCER (3) returns from a break of five months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 1810m at Lingfield. Rates highly, and a bold showing is expected. MISS YVONNE (2) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after two runs this campaign, the latest over 2000m at this track. Justified the strong support last time and is expected to be in the finish again. GIMMIE SHELTER (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. EL INTROVERTIDO (4) finished third last start over 2000m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Ready to go a couple better.
