Newmarket Race 1 - Bahrain Trophy Stakes (Group 3)
POINT OF LAW (5) Finished 4th last time at Ascot. Capable of bouncing back and facing a weaker grade. Has shown early pace in races to date. Solid career start. Better hope. GALIYAN (3) Ran 6th last time at Ascot. Looking for an improved run and facing less formidable opponents. Should be going forward early. Serious player. DEL MARO (2) Was agonizingly close last time at Ascot and matched against lesser competition. Jockey William T Buick rates highly aboard. In fine form this campaign. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. NIL BUA GAN DUA (4) Didn't maintain the pace throughout when 4th last run at Ascot and competing at a lower level of competition. Should muster plenty of early speed. Gets a favourable draw. Keep in mind.

Started $101.00 and ran 5th last start at Epsom but taking on easier opposition. Might have to make up considerable ground. Has a positive draw. Not likely to pull off the victory.

Just short of the win last time at Ascot and challenged by less formidable competitors. William T Buick rates highly. Displaying good ability since resuming from a break. Should go well.

Jumped at $3.00 and ran 6th last time at Ascot. Looking for an improved run and challenged by weaker competitors. Has plenty of early speed. Should put in a decent effort.

Lost momentum when 4th last run at Ascot and facing weaker opposition. Won't be far away during the run. Running with confidence this preparation. Represents significant value.

Started at $8.00 and ran 4th last time at Ascot. Capable of bouncing back and taking on a lower class of opponents. Displays good tactical speed. Solid chance.
