Taif Race 5 - 7f Stakes
METSANEA (8) finished 7 lengths from the winner in second on debut last start over 1600m at this track. Jumps from a good draw so he will be hard to beat. REDA ALMUHAMADIA (10) stepped out on his debut over 1200m here five weeks ago and finished seventh, beaten 21 lengths. Should progress this time and is expected to feature. RAHHABI (9) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1400m at this circuit three weeks ago. Likely improver with bright prospects again. ALNAQI (1) didn't finish over 1600m at this venue last time following a minor placing on debut the run before. Has the speed to be prominent from this nice gate. Well placed and can feature in the finish.
