Verdict

NATIONAL HISTORY (10) closed last prep ten weeks ago when he finished third over 1m at this track. He hails from the Charlie Appleby team and will be the one to beat fresh up in this. SALLOOM (12) is a colt by Authentic out of Rumandice who is at the races for the first time today. Progressing nicely with a recent trial win. Looks set to run well, check the markets. YAMDEEK (14) is on a quick back-up after finishing seventh in better company seven days ago over 1m in the G3 UAE 2000 Guineas at this track. Each way claims at this level. DOGHAN (4) was fair on debut last start when fifth over 7f at Jebel Ali. Tackles a longer journey this time, and with the natural improvement that is expected, he is worth including in all combinations.
