Canadian International Stakes winner NATIONS PRIDE (9) finished off last campaign with a seventh over 1m2f in Group 2 grade at Sakhir on November 17 beaten 4 lengths. Excels when when resuming, claiming zero(5 wins from six starts and scored when resuming last prep, can play a major role. Group 2 winner SILVER KNOTT (8) was returning from a break last time out and proved too classy, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1m4f in the G2 Elkhorn Stakes at Keeneland (Turf). Multiple Group 3 winner TAWNY PORT (5) was only a neck from the winner in third last time out in a small field over 1m4f in the G2 Pan American Stakes at Gulfstream Park (Turf). Winning rider I Ortiz Jr sticks. Strips fitter and must be respected. Group 2 winner KERTEZ (2) has been kept fresh since he resumed last start and proved too strong, scoring by 0.1 lengths over 1m4f in the G2 Pan American Stakes at Gulfstream Park (Turf).
