AL FAREEJ, who cost 70,000gns as a yearling, is very speedily-bred and made an encouraging debut behind Arabian Queen at Windsor. She's up against some potentially decent rivals but her experience can see her through. Al Gomry cost 150,000gns and is a half-brother to the useful Upward Spiral so plenty will be expected of him, as it will Adulation, who cost the same amount and is related to a couple of winning sprinters. Angelic Lord is also bred for pace and with his yard going well he's another to keep an eye on.
