Ado McGuinness is chasing more top-level success with A Case Of You who is on course for the Group 1 Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan in a fortnight's time.

The Prix de l'Abbaye winner reappeared in February with a comfortable success in a small-field conditions event at Dundalk before embarking on his journey to Dubai.

While no match for the impressive Godolphin-owned winner Man Of Promise in last Saturday's Group 3 Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint, the Hot Streak colt kept on nicely to be a good second under Ronan Whelan and his trainer is looking forward to a rematch with the winner over the same course and six furlong distance.

"We are looking forward to next Saturday week. I know he has a little bit to do but he's in great form. He's loving life out in the sun. Hopefully he will run a big race out there and get us a big cheque.

"He's been great (since his runner-up finish in Meydan), he's cantering away and he's gleaming out there. He's very, very happy and he's grubbing away. He's a great traveller as well so we are very happy with him."
