Bahrain Race 5

7F Hcap

Prize Money: $0

BUSSENTO (3) turned in a fine effort to score by a length at this track and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. He is seldom far away and should be a lot stronger this season. Go again. ROYAL SCIMITAR (2) was always forward and boxed on to finish third over 1600m at this track last time. Has a high cruising speed. Will prove tough to beat. ECOSYSTEM (1) produced a good run two starts back to finish third and then she finished fifth at this track over the same trip. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. She will be peaking third up and a win would not be a shock. CITY HOUSE (6) finished second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten half a length. Will strip fitter this time and he can go one better.

Going well. Most recently 3rd of 7 at this track on December 20 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Watch My Tracer carrying 61kg. The race before that 4th of 7 at this track in BHRLR on December 13 over 1600m, 5 len behind Goemon carrying 57kg. Sure to be tough to beat from an inside barrier.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Second-up. First-up after 11 months won by 1.0 len at this track December 27 over 1400m defeating Juantorena with 60kg. Previously second-up won by 4 len at this track January 19 over 1400m defeating Yaalail carrying 62kg. Even fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
