Taif Race 2 - 1m Stakes
RKEN AL QANON (14) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing a neck from the winner in second over 1600m at this track. Can get off the mark this time. ASEEL ALARIN (19) has started twice, running a good third on debut then finishing fifth, beaten 15 lengths, last time over 1600m here. Should be prominent from the outset. Looks well placed and is worth another chance. T S NABHAN (21) could not emulate his top-three finish on debut when resuming last start, beaten 64 lengths into ninth over 1600m at this venue. Fitter for that hitout and should do much better. AJMAL ABU ALAWAID (2) debuted a week ago when he finished fourth over 1600m at this course, beaten only 1.4 lengths. Worth following up.
