Thursdays best bets !!

Two flat cards on All Weather, though both cards make very limited appeal with some very tough looking handicaps .

Going concentrate on Dubai carnival at Meydan where there looks very interesting 1 mile listed race at 4.50

1 MILE LISTED FIREBREAK STAKES MEYDAN 4.50

BANKABLE : Former Luca Cumani & Gary Moore trained 7-Y-0 ,looked better than ever last season when  winning 8F group two Al Fahidi Fort stakes at Meydan on turf and then finishing excellent second in group one 9F Dubai Duty free behind Al Shamali.

Made eye catching reappearance four weeks ago at Meydan finishing 4TH in conditions race over 6F on tepeta, finishing fast after not getting anything like clear run  .Will be suited by the return to 1 mile and should go well in this listed contest.

VERDICT : MUSIR looks the main danger , unbeaten at Meydan winning 3 out 3  last season for Mike De Koch,including winning group 2 UAE Derby last March ,though looks short enough in market for horse that hasn't run for nearly year.

Mike De Koch's other runner IMBONGI also looks possible danger after running decent second at Meydan in group 3 race last time behind the useful Mendip ,and did win group two race here on turf last season ,though was beaten twice by Bankable at Meydan last season.

At the prices BANKABLE looks good value  ,had some rock solid form last season, including finishing second in group one Dubai Duty Free at Meydan and goes particularly well for Ryan Moore.
