Signed off last term with C&D Group 1 win and didn't need to be at best on return

Not at his best on sole UAE run last term and 6f looks sharp on return; may need this

Progressive last term; 6f Jebel Ali win at end of the campaign; needs to be fully wound up

Impressive yard debut, bolting up at Jebel Ali on belated return; bounce factor a concern

Back to best with a 5th in the Golden Shaheen; hard to see him reversing that on return

3-time C&D winner; ran a cracker on return but tends to find this level too tough

Shown very little in the UAE in the last few seasons and he's been off another 350 days
