DARK SAFFRON

A BIN HARMASH · CONNOR BEASLEY · 4yo Gelding

Resumes after eight months off the back of a G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen win at Meydan Dirt, where he beat Bentornato by just under two lengths at an outside price. He had been second in the G3 Mahab Al Shimaal before that, beaten just under a length after being unwanted in the market. First local run adds some uncertainty, but his Group 1 record gives him genuine place claims.
