We expected Charlie Appleby to have a good day at Meydan and he had an excellent one, saddling the winners of all 3 Group races.

The G3 Dubai Millenium 2000m turf went to Appleby's Spotify with James Doyle riding with bin Surroor'sA short head away in second and the more-favoured of the Appleby runner First Nation third.

The UAE Oaks saw the lovely Divine Image stick out her beautiful neck to deny Swift Rise and the Doug Watson trained Razeema who ran a blinder to finish third.

The G2 Zabeel Mile saw Mythical Magic show the benefit of a Dubai run when beating Century Dream by 3 lengths with First Contact back in third. William Buick was in the irons for the last two Appleby wins and had good reports of both horses. Aussie runner Comin Through didn't.
