BATAL DUBAI tasted defeat for the first time on the all-weather at Newcastle a fortnight ago but that was a stronger race than this and, moreover, the drop to 5f counted against him. He still looks fairly treated and is taken to resume winning ways now returned to his optimum trip. Justcallmepete did the job well over C&D last time and is feared most ahead of Open Mind and Clipsham La Habana.
