Abu Dhabi Race 3 - Race 3 - Emirates Colts Classic Conditions Stakes
SHADDAD (15) Ran 5th last run here. Should improve and challenged by less formidable competitors. Has to be included. JAP JAZIL (1) Solid win last time around here and competing in a lower grade. Can give this a shake. FAHIM (9) Resuming. Ran 9th last run at Al Ain. A win wouldn't surprise. ALMUKHATER (4) Came in 6th last time at this venue but facing weaker opposition. Strong chance.
