15/2, second career win when landing 9-runner C&D conditions event C&D 28 days ago, suited by strong pace. More will be needed back in a handicap.

Three wins from 7 runs last year. 22/1, first run since leaving William Haggas when thirteenth of 16 in 1m turf handicap here 7 days ago. Needs to have come a fair bit for the run.

Course winner. Not seen to best effect in conditions race on reappearance 35 days ago. No surprise were he to prove a different proposition this time with Frankie Dettori in the saddle.

C&D winner in January. Good 3¾ lengths third of 9 to Discovery Island in conditions event over C&D 28 ago, nearest finish. Should be thereabouts.

2/1
First run in UAE when winning 10-runner C&D handicap 26 days ago. 5 lb rise is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing from Doug Watson's charge.

Forecasts

Scabbard (2/1), Bright Start (3/1), Discovery Island (10/3), Dessman (8/1), Motawaajed (10/1), Law Of Peace (16/1), Telemaque (18/1), Plata O Plomo (33/1), Ahatis (40/1), Learn By Heart (40/1), Revamp (50/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on BRIGHT START leaving his reappearance run behind as he's well treated on the form he showed here early last year. Scabbard made a winning start for the Doug Watson stable over C&D last month and is feared most ahead of Law of Peace.
