Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Bit below form third of 10 in handicap (5/1) at Jebel Ali (5f) 22 days ago. Long time since last run on turf but has to enter calculations.

4/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Jebel Ali (6f) 7 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Ayaad. A danger if transferring that form to turf.

Forecasts

Stunning Beauty (11/4), Rayig (6/1), Dukedom (15/2), Nibraas (9/1), Bawaasil (9/1), Cairn Island (9/1), Leading Spirit (10/1), Ayaad (12/1), Madkhal (18/1), Harvest Gold (20/1), Mcmanaman (20/1), Will To Win (20/1), Invincibly (22/1), Celtic Voyager (33/1)

Verdict

A wide open race but the tentative vote goes to BAWAASIL who ran well off a similar mark last year and will be suited by the return to turf. Stunning Beauty can give a good account providing she isn't taken off her feet back at this trip. Leading Spirit and Rayig can't be discounted if reproducing their recent dirt form.
