Forecasts

Ghost Of The Mambo (4/1), Havandi (11/2), Meqdam (6/1), Mouser (9/1), Kibo Misaki (9/1), Desert Snake (9/1), Norato (16/1), Fall Of Rome (16/1), Nova Roma (16/1), New Comedy (18/1), Dubai Vision (18/1), Mashkoor (20/1), Frosty Wind (20/1), Alwareeth (22/1), Persian Empire (22/1), Daneyan (25/1)

GHOST OF THE MAMBO's consistency at this sort of level is hard to knock and back up in trip, he's awarded the tentative nod in what is an open contest. Meqdam is weighted to reverse Sharjah form with Mouser and is a threat, along with Desert Snake down in class.
