A lot of Japanese horses entered up and couple of decent lightly raced Euros but race clashes with Dubai Gold Cup few weeks earlier so its one or other for them and those in UAE owned .Ladies First wouldn't get near those .

Mattski 176 Report post Posted March 3, 2019 Didn't Zacada go down by a about a head last year? Noms do look stronger to be fair but 1/2 of them will drop away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
