Forecasts

Bawadi Spirit (6/5), Sound Of Dubai (3/1), King Leo (4/1), Tahdeed (8/1), Dignity Joy (11/1), Benin (20/1)

BAWADI SPIRIT shaped with a bit of promise on debut and is taken to get off the mark at the second time of asking. King Leo looks to have most to off of the rest, while Sound Of Dubai has place prospects as well.
