Quiet card this week in Dubai; you could argue that the all-dirt meeting tomorrow at Jebel Ali is much better (it is.) Still a few betting opportunities available however.
I see that #9- Mostawaa (7-1) runs back at his best distance today in Race 4, and the lower ratings cap in this (85) would rule out the four that finished ahead of him last time. Mostawaa gave me one of my better scores last year in the Carlisle Bell Handicap:
upinclass.proboards.com/thread/8250/carlisle-worlds-oldest-sporting-trophy
MEY R4 (10:15am ET)- 1m (Handicap) (Turf) (3yo+ 60-85)

WIN- 9
MEY R6 (11:25am ET)- 6f Dubai Trophy (Conditions Race) (Turf) (3yo)
www.racingpost.com/racecards/1231/meydan/2024-02-09/860651
All the money is coming for #5- Great Truth (9-2) but he hasn't been progressive like a typical Godolphin/Appleby youngster, and I don't understand why he is running at 6F given his pedigree (Dubawi x Australia mare). Have to go with #1- Starlust (3-1) for Ralph Beckett, GIII-winner (AW) was third at Santa Anita in BC Juv Turf Sprint behind Big Evs, then repeated that effort here last time in 3yo stakes, only a length behind good Godolphin sprinter Star Of Mystery, which returned to capture the Blue Point Sprint (GII) against elders here two weeks ago.
WIN (>= 2-1)- 1 TRI- 1/2,3,5,7,8/2,3,5,7,8
MEY R7 (12:00Noon ET)- 1m4f (1m4f11y) Vazirabad Handicap (Handicap) (Turf) (3yo+)
www.racingpost.com/racecards/1231/meydan/2024-02-09/860652
Can't take a short price on Ruling Dynasty, which despite excuses last time has still thrown in two clunkers in a row. #4- Scottish Anthem (7-2) was second to Dhahabi in a better handicap two back, then finished a similar margin behind that one in Siskany's Al Khail Trophy (Listed) win most recently.
WIN- 4 EX- 4/2,5,6
MEY R9 (1:10pm ET)- 1m2f (Handicap) (Turf) (3yo+ 70-95)

Underwhelming group entered here, so let's try #10- Law Of Nature (12-1) which was short of room when the real running began in last. Saffie Osborne takes over the steering today, and they are treated very well in the weights.
WIN- 10
