Verdict

DR FAUSTUS won the last time he raced over today's trip on the Turf at Abu Dhabi. This surface is no problem and after a decent fifth in better company here earlier this month, Doug Watson's charge can return to winning ways. Tesslam has been hinting at a return to form but Mantoba has a bit to find with the selection on earlier running. Rebel Song won over 1m2f here last month but has been beaten since and is upped in the weights again but Ukrainian, three times a winner for Mark Johnston in the UK, got off the mark for current connections over track and trip last time with a below-par Udabaa well beaten. The latter scored here himself last month and is not easily dismissed and neither is Midnight Moon.
