Lines up in an easier race after being edged out last start behind Calandagan in the Dubai Sheema Classic over 2410m at Meydan. Tough to beat on the latest effort.

Stepping it up this time after returning from a spell last start with a second, beaten 0.8 lengths by Marquisat in the over 2400m at Saint-Cloud. Would have to improve even further.

Tackles an easier race here after opening this campaign with a sixth behind Bright Picture last start in the Prix D'Harcourt over 2000m at this track. Can return to his best in this company.

Four- time winner at black-type level who resumed in good style last time out, finishing third to Zarraf in the over 2400m at this track, beaten 1.3 lengths. Going well and looks hard to beat again here.

Looking to improve on his last-start fifth in the Prix D'Harcourt won by Bright Picture over 2000m at this track four weeks ago. One of the contenders.

Comes here after a eighth in the Prix Fille De L'Air won by Weltbeste six months ago over 2100m at Toulouse. Others rate better this time.
