EASTERN WORLD won a Turf handicap for Godolphin here a year ago and returned last month and won a Listed race on the Dirt. He ran well for a long way in a Group 2 a fortnight ago and is a long way clear on official ratings. Another former Godolphin inmate, Desert Wisdom, made a successful debut for new connections at Jebel Ali before an excellent run behind a long odds-on chance three weeks ago when the remainder were beaten a long way. Law Of Peace was having his first start here when coming with a late burst to score over the course and distance and his yard remain in outstanding form while Scots Pine found 6f too short last month after scoring over 7f here.
