      Verdict

      Conry can race off a much lower mark on the all-weather but was well beaten here recently anyway and Arabian Heights has been off the track since last summer. The Lock Master and First Post found Greyfriarschorista over four lengths too good when the latter scored over track and trip last week. He has leading claims again but FRONTIER FIGHTER makes most appeal. David O'Meara's charge went close to catching course specialist Dubai Hills over 7f here last month and will take all the beating if reproducing that effort.
