In depth

Verdict

MAWTHOG made an impressive debut for Michael Costa at Jebel Ali in February and an opening mark of 91 could be underestimating him. The stable also run Faattik, an easy winner for Roger Varian at Salisbury in August last year. Leading Spirit was in very good form last winter and his close fourth in a Jebel Ali Listed contest in March puts him in the picture. Ranaan started off last season by beating Street Mood, who runs earlier, four lengths over the course and distance and ended with another fine run so has to be considered as does stablemate Alkaraama, who had two runs in Group company last winter.
