Bahrain Race 4 - HM The King's Cup (Domestic Group 1)
CHANDIGAH (2) arrives in top order after putting together consecutive wins, the latest a strong performance in Group 2 company over 1200m here, where he travelled on speed and proved too sharp late. His early pace should make him hard to peg back again. DREAM OUT LOUD (4) continues to hold his form well, having claimed a Group 2 at the inner circuit two runs back before finishing close-up in third over this course and distance at the same level. Each way claims. DESERT COP (3) has been freshened since his run over 1000m here six weeks ago and is capable of improving sharply with the added distance. He should settle near the front and give a bold account. AVA GO JOE (1) resumed with a midfield finish in Group 2 grade over 1200m at the inner track, beaten a fair margin but typically improves with a run under the belt. He has the ability to lift significantly second-up and remain competitive

Form hard to fault. Most recently 3rd of 9 at this track in BHRG2 on March 21 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Chandigah with 59.5kg at $2.62. The run before that won by 6 len at Sakhir Inner BHRG2 February 26 over 1200m defeating Devaste carrying 58kg at $6. Sure to be right there at the business end.
