Successful on return in this race 12 months ago, Man Of Promise teed himself up perfectly for a repeat bid when runner-up to stablemate Lazuli 3 weeks ago and he looks the one to side with back up in trip. Thunder of Niagara and the ex-William Haggas-trained Nahaarr are others fancied to be in the mix.
Saeed bin Suroor's Mawj holds the clear edge on form in this fillies' conditions event and can make light of her 125-day absence for a stable that had made a typically strong start at the Carnival. Dream Of Love has better days ahead of her and is next on the list ahead of Deauville scorer Axdaliva.
Legend Of Dubai - 16:20 Meydan
Legend Of Dubai ran well on his final outing for Roger Varian and makes plenty of appeal starting out for a top local yard after 142 days off. White Wolf, last seen scoring impressively in a novice at Wolverhampton, is a big danger and his stablemate Brilliant Light is also hard to dismiss.
