FormscanBy Alan Magee - KUWAIT DIRECTION was only beaten about four lengths in the Coventry Stakes as a juvenile although the course maiden winner has had his sights greatly lowered since. He won off a basement mark over this trip at Fairyhouse in September and has held his form well since on this surface including when runner-up to Company Keeping last month. Sadiqaa showed plenty of pace and perhaps went off too quick when weakening inside the final furlong here last week, while others to consider include Livingston Range, Dutch Glory and Midnight Fire. The latter won a 23-runner handicap at the Curragh this spring and should be suited by the return to six.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards rated 47-65Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
