Meydan Race 8

Longines Dubai Sheema Classic (Group 1) - Turf

Prize Money: $2,608,696

CALANDAGAN (5) added to his fine record when second over 2011m in the G1 Champion Stakes at Ascot at the last run before going for a break on October 19. He has plenty of upside and won't lack fitness after his space between starts. On top in another competitive contest. REBEL'S ROMANCE (4) is a talented type who recently returned from a break and made it three straight wins, scoring by one length over 2300m at Al Rayyan. Kept fresh and as a prolific winner who has scored on this track in the past, he will be very hard to hold out. SHIN EMPEROR (8) was well supported when resuming last time out over 2100m in Group 2 grade at Riyadh and proved too strong, scoring by 1.75 lengths. He is a lot stronger this year, and he is capable of taking this out. GIAVELLOTTO (3) went to the paddock after scoring at his only appearance last prep four months ago over 2400m in the G1 Longines Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin. Oisin Murphy, who has three wins when partnering, stays on. Go again.
