Verdict

VINO SAURO (15) resumed from a spell with a solid third at this track over 7f. Placed to advantage, and he is the one to beat. Check the market closely. NO ESCAPE (13) is an imported three-year-old having his first run in this area for the M Al Mheiri barn. Hasn't raced since he finished seventh over 1 ¹/16m at Monmouth Park (Turf) five-and-a-half months ago. He is expected to be in the finish. ELUSIVE TREVOR (6) was in commission last time out but disappointed in finishing fifth over 1m at Abu Dhabi, beaten 5 lengths. Finds the right race and is worth each-way consideration. HIDDEN SECRET (9) returned from a spell four weeks ago when he was a sound fifth over 7f at this track. Fitter and sure to run well. Include in all combinations
