Default Meydan Saturday Mar. 26th

Getting these up early as I'm above the Arctic Circle at the moment and don't know if I'll have a chance to put them up later...

Race 2 (Godolphin Mile):
#2 Marking: Doesn't find the strongest field to make his G1 debut and looks to have some ability
#10 Prayer For Relief: Caught wide in his first two this year, then ran on well late when back in two weeks. Toss the turf run. Compare Confrontation form line with #1
#1 One Man Band: Different animal since being put on the front end. SCR of #3 helps his case
#9 Sloane Avenue: Missed time with a few issues

Race 3 (Gold Cup):
#3 Suegioo: Although he didn't win last year he was in the form of his career, running third in two prestigious marathons
#1 Vazirabad: The best on paper but first off the layoff and reportedly had issues travelling
#10 Tellina
#5 Star Empire

Race 4 (UAE Derby):
#5 Vale Dori: 4yo filly giving away weight in never a positive, but will have needed that first up run and the price looks reasonable
#2 Polar River
#7 Lazzam
#6 On the Rocks

Race 5 (Al Quoz Sprint):
#4 Not Listenin'tome: Gave away 13-27lbs last time in good company and still won, just has to ship to Dubai and run back in three weeks
#5 Peniaphobia: Probably the better of the two from HK, but has had a bit of a stop-start campaign
#7 Sole Power: Never rated this one but he won last year and stormed home late in the prep
#10 Muthmir

Race 6 (Golden Shaheen):
#2 Master Kochanwong: Retiring after this so will be giving it his best shot. Trialled phenomenally a week and a half ago and looks a juicy overlay
#8 Confrontation: Other than the Forego debacle, what else could he have done: 2nd to Liam's Map, Tonalist, Lea, Salutos Amigos, etc...
#1 Rich Tapestry: Can't take any of the Mar 5 dirt form seriously. Been there, done that, and showed in Feb he's still got something
#7 Muarrab

Race 7 (Turf):
#10 Euro Charline: Not disgraced last year without a prep. Collapsed after a blitzing pace trying to repeat in CHI and looks an overlay here taking on the boys
#14 Real Steel: High hopes for this one but couldn't quite perform past 9f. Back to what looks like his best distance with Moore, but drawn in 14
#12 Ertijaal
#6 Flamboyant

Race 8 (Sheema Classic):
#8 Highland Reel: Moore rates this his best chance of the night, and with good reason
#9 Dariyan: No match for Postponed last time, but the upside with him is brighter
#4 Duramente: Pay close attention to how Real Steel runs in the previous
#7 Postponed

Race 9 (World Cup):
#9 Frosted: Hasn't yet done it at 10f, but would have cruised home even with the extra 1/16th in the prep
#3 Gun Pit: Didn't handle the Japanese course and couldn't do much on the speed biased track
#11 California Chrome: Impressive beating a bunch of nobodies last out in a slow time
#12 Teletext: Deceptive turf form, 3/4 on dirt, de Sousa, 50-1

Good luck!

Are you checking out some reindeer stock to claim?

Looks like rail and speed bias on dirt, Chrome is up against it in 11 post.

After just watching the UAE derby , I have a couple of statement type questions .
To the track announcer . Winner goes to his knees at the start with no mention of it ?
The winner was under the whip 600m from home . Is this common ?
Are there any other Tapits from Sunday Silence mares ?
If they don't bet , do they have hoss players ? Or only rich shieks ?
Are there guns there ? Medical marijuana ? Women learning ? Women jockeys ? Women trainers ? Everyone speak English ?
