Bahrain Race 5

1M 2F Hcap

Prize Money: $12,712

PHOENIX PASSION (1) finished only 3 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1600m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in distance today and should be hard to hold out. FLAME SPIRIT (4) has switched yards since finishing fifth eight weeks ago over 2000m at this track. Likely to figure in the finish in a small field. KING OF THE THRONE (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 2200m at this track. Stick with him. HMS ENDEAVOUR (5) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 1600m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset and is not to be discounted.

Useful type. Last start 7th of 13 at this track on March 20 over 1600m, 3 len behind Rawyaan with 62kg at $4.33. Before that 7th of 10 at this track on March 7 over 2000m, 9 len behind Fanatic with 55.5kg at $17. Only has a small field to contend with and looks hard to beat.

Recent form sound. Last start 3rd of 10 at this track on March 13 over 2200m, 2.25 len behind Double Jump carrying 60kg at $3.25. The run before that 4th of 12 at this track on February 14 over 2200m, 5.5 len behind Knight Of Honour with 54kg at $8. Sure to be competitive with so few opponents.

At the latest run 10th of 13 at this track on March 20 over 1600m, 9 len behind Rawyaan with 56kg at $26. The race before that ran last of 10 at this track on March 13 over 2200m, 11 len behind Double Jump with 59.5kg at $23. Will need to improve many lengths to feature.

Returns from a 55-day let-up. At the latest run second last in a small field at this track on February 7 over 2000m, 9 len behind Gamraan carrying 61kg at $15. The race before that 12th of 17 at this track on January 30 over 1600m, 13 len behind Gimmie Shelter with 60kg at $26. Capable of a better run.
