Desert Koby should spear straight to the front of the small field. Smashed by scratchings. DESERT KOBY (5) resumes seeking the hat-trick and flies fresh. has the rial and likes the wet. He's left the one they have to beat. DOUBTING EYE (6) was only beaten 1L here last time on a slow surface. Hard fit and can't be ruled out. FROSTY BEAR (7) has been racing well, but has to find more to threaten. SUGGESTED PLAY: Desert Koby is hard to go past.
