Meydan Race 2 - Race 2 - Jumeirah 1000 Guineas Sponsored By Emirates Skywards Listed Stakes - Turf
TAIFUU (1) extended his winning streak to 3 when resuming over 1400m at this track, scoring by half a length. The same winning combination sticks, and he should be too good again. FAIRY OAK (2) defied big odds when fresh, finishing a close second over 1400m here behind the top pick. With that run under the belt, another strong performance is expected. Stick with him. TRUE TEST (3) resumed with a solid fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. He is likely to settle just off the pace and should be involved in the finish. Include in all combinations. CALLAHAN (4) was well below his best when resuming over 1400m here, finishing well back. He is capable of rolling forward and, on his best form, he has solid top 4 claims.
