Verdict

Musabah Al Muhairi and Silvestre De Sousa had four winners each at Jebel Ali on Friday and the pair have already had a successful start here with Muhtaram contributing a double to their total. The former Godolphin gelding defied a 10lb rise for his victory early last month with another convincing success so an extra 5lb is unlikely to prevent a big run. Alnashmy was in good form around this time a year ago and has dropped back to a fair mark while Expert Answer looked a smart prospect when landing a maiden here in March in good style. FILFIL was always travelling well when scoring here a fortnight ago and won from a higher mark than this here in February so is taken to complete a quick double, though One Man Band has to be a major threat after his impressive maiden success earlier this month and begins in handicaps on what could prove to be a very lenient mark. Tanseeb had some strong form for Mark Johnston despite winning just once and would be a threat if taking to the surface though he never ran on the all-weather in the UK.
