Taif Race 9 - 1m Stakes
MAOWAL ALMUNTAKHABA (8) is a talented type who returned from a break last start and made it two wins from as many starts, scoring by 6 lengths over 1400m at this track. Had plenty in hand last time and looks the testing material again. HHAFZA (6) impressed when successful on debut over 1200m at Riyadh Dirt seven months ago and has not raced since. Has plenty of upside and can win again. AJMAL ABU ALAWAID (1) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 7 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1600m here. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. DAREEN SB (24) finished second on debut five weeks ago over 1200m at this circuit, beaten 23 lengths. Should run very well.

Third race start. Promising on debut as favourite; scored a big 11 len win at Riyadh Dirt on January 29 over 1400m defeating Shaqra Aldarae with 58kg at $23. Went for a break before returning favourite; scored a big 6 len win at this track on July 31 over 1400m defeating Jabal Alzamilia with 58kg at $2.75. Clearly the one to beat again. Improver with winning prospects.
