Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup Sprint (Class 2 Handicap)

Havana Hurricane has run over today's trip and going, arrives on a 28-day break in good order, and our rating puts him top-rated in this field, if only just — a strong threat. The risk is that he's winless in his last five starts, with a ninth last time out suggesting he needs to bounce back.

Tailed off after a win four starts back, Shaatir has since managed only two fourths and an unplaced effort in recent starts, and a 116-day absence does him no favours; he has run over today's trip and going, but ranked ninth of twelve on our figures, he is hard to fancy.

Back-to-back thirds two and three starts back show May Angel can hit the frame, and he has run over today's trip and going before; the concern is a pair of eighths since then suggest he needs to rediscover that form quickly.

Showed a second three starts back and back-to-back wins in earlier recent starts, but back-to-back fifths and fourths since suggest he's in a dip; a trainer firing at just 4% lately adds caution, though he has distance-and-going experience and a rating of 100 gives him claims.

Winless in her last five starts, Figjam nonetheless has the profile to go well here — she has run over today's trip and going, is fresh on 29 days' absence, and our rating of 106 suggests she's significantly better than her official mark of 92 implies.
