Taif Race 8 - 1m Stakes
SAHAB ALRIYADH (1) impressed when successful on debut over 1200m at this track six weeks ago. Looks promising and can measure up again. RIQ ALBANAT (12) was well fancied when resuming last start over 1200m here when third, beaten 24 lengths. Can make amends over the extra ground. KYAN (8) will find this a little easier than her third on debut three weeks ago, beaten 8 lengths at the end of 1600m at this circuit. Drawn out but she is among the leading chances. M N NJMAH (20) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1600m at this venue. Has ability and is worth including.

Second-up. First start 3rd of 15 at Riyadh Dirt on January 24 over 1200m, 7 len behind Dananir Aldahm carrying 58kg at $26. Went for a spell before returning 7th of 9 at this track on August 14 over 1600m, 69 len behind Ghazala Alyat Najd carrying 56kg at $2.75. Should progress from that first-up run.
