| A good win in the Group 2 Bani Yas over 1200m for the Doug Watson trained Quaolina as he beat Palapal by 3 3/4 lengths under Richard Hills, a fifth career win for the mare and she has won over further as well so any trip around could suit her. Unlucky tag goes to Jinad whose season has been brilliant but he was looking in with a chance until hanging badly right acoss the track despite allthe efforts of Jockey Richard Mullen to finish 3rd. |

| Godolphin were forced to switch Frankie Dettori on to Skysurfers after West Side Bernie was a withdrawal, but that did not make any difference as Skysurfers destroyed the field with an impressive display in only his second run in public. His first was a 10 length victory in the UK and this was a good follow up defeating Eagle Mountain with something in hand, it will be interesting to see now where Godolphin aim their latest star who laned the double for Saeed bin Suroor, Godolphin and Frankie Dettori |
