Formscan - The consistent Sturlasson must be taken seriously on his return to the fray and it would come as no surprise if We Never Stop was involved in the finish. DYONISOS just edges it, though, as he can show the benefit of having had a couple of efforts in the Dubai sunshine this winter and his latest third at Meydan was a really encouraging display.
