Stewards Report: Quimerico was scratched by the Stewards as the record of vaccinations in the passport was found not to be compliant with QREC's operating procedures as detailed in the memorandum issued on 21st September 2016. Reserve 1, Excelo, gained a run and was ridden by Adnan Hawa.Eshail (Faleh Bughanaim) was led to post with permission. Eshail was slow to begin and gave ground early. Al Thumuma Lord (Qais Al-Busaidi) jumped awkwardly and over-raced in the early stages. Excelo (Adnan Hawa) jumped awkwardly. Kuwaity (Shakir Al Balushi) shifted inwards shortly after jumping and then raced wide in the middle stages after being shifted outwards to avoid the heels of Excelo (Adnan Hawa). Silaiyli (Tomas Lukasek) was slow to begin and raced in rear division until, when attempting to improve wide out at the 250m, Silaiyli was shifted further outwards by Kuwaity (Shakir Al Balushi) which was brushed by Mahthouf (Marco Casamento). Golden Bear (Anas Al Seyabi) over-raced in the early stages. Subsequently, at the 200m Golden Bear was shifted outwards to challenge but then commenced to lay inwards under pressure from inside the 100m. Hallo Sixties (Ivan Rossi) over raced in the middle stages. Yardan (Ronan Thomas) was shifted inwards to challenge at the 300m. Roving Mission (Olivier d'Andigne) was briefly disappointed for a run at the 250m behind Deliberate Attack (Lukas Delozier). Deliberate Attack (Lukas Delozier) returned having lost a left-fore shoe.

Stewards Report: Cococabala (Ivan Rossi) was fractious in the barrier and shifted inwards shortly after jumping. Subsequently, inside the 100m Cococabala was disappointed for a run as Noble Masterpiece (Lukas Delozier) shifted inwards. Jimmy Sparks (Alberto Sanna) was slow to begin. At the 1200m Sam Langford (Marco Casamento) was crowded, turned inwards, and made contact with the rail when Sir Commander (Olivier d'Andigne) shifted in away from Action Hero (Soufiane Saadi) which was over-racing and shied away from horses on its outside. After reviewing the vision the Stewards deemed this to be a racing incident for which no particular rider was to blame. Cruella Dovil (Carlos Henrique) was forced to race wide without cover when racing keenly in the middle stages. At the 300m, Action Hero (Soufiane Saadi) was briefly checked when Noble Masterpiece (Lukas Delozier) shifted inwards momentarily. Between the 300m and the 200m, Wishaah (Szczepan Mazur) was disappointed for a run behind horses before being shifted outwards into a gap between Noble Masterpiece (Lukas Delozier) and Cruella Dovil (Carlos Henrique). Rex Place (Anas Al Seyabi) was persistently disappointed for a run from the 250m, and was never able to be properly tested. At the 100m Balmari (Tomas Lukasek) was shifted out to attempt a run between Sam Langford (Marco Casamento) and Main Reef (Eduardo Pedroza) but was then disappointed as the gap narrowed.

Stewards Report: The tongue-strap on Hajaj (Szczepan Mazur) had to be re-fitted at the start. Fierospeed (Tomas Lukasek) plunged under the gate during the load, became cast, and after being extracted was withdrawn on veterinary advice.

Daneyan (Ivan Rossi) was slow into stride. Venedegar (Olivier d'Andigne) was brushed at the start by Wedream (Al Moatasem Al Balushi) which jumped inwards. Al Modajal (Anas Al Seyabi) stumbled leaving the barrier and gave ground. Subsequently, Al Modajal raced wide at the 400m and then shifted inwards under pressure approaching the 200m. Choco Charly (Alberto Sanna) over-raced in the early stages and got its head up. Myboyhenry (Soufiane Saadi) shifted outwards under pressure in the final strides. Ronan Thomas reported that Aluqdah, which was second up today after a 12 month spell, was never striding out to his satsifaction and as such he felt it prudent not to test him in the straight. Wedream (Anas Al Seyabi) returned lame left fore.

Stewards Report: Black Pearl (Eduardo Pedroza) was led to post with permission. Black Pearl was kicking out backwards in the barrier, over-raced in the early stages and then at the 1300m appeared to lose its action. Jockey Eduardo Pedroza reported that he felt it prudent to gradually ease the gelding out of contention, which he did before pulling up at the 300m. Black Pearl was reported to be lame left hind on post-race veterinary examination, and will be required to pass one Barrier trial before being declared to race next. War King (Alberto Sanna) was led to post with permission. War King was intractable and unable to be loaded and was therefore scratched by the Starter.

Subsequently, Mosayter shifted outwards for racing room at the 600m.
