A Taste Of Home At Jebel Ali?

Three-time stakes winner Home Brew (Street Sense), who races in the colours of Sheikh Ahmed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is the highest-rated horse in Saturday's AED700,000 G3 Jebel Ali Mile Sponsored by Shadwell.

Trained by Michael Costa, who has been enjoying a successful season in the UAE, the 5-year-old entire won the Bourbon Trail S. at Churchill Downs in his final start for breeders Gary and Mary West. He resurfaced in these new colours at Meydan in November, but ran unplaced that day. Saturday is his first start back and he leaves from the widest gate, stall 13.

Despite his ample backclass, Home Brew faces a stiff challenge in the form of four-for-six Swing Vote (GB) (Shamardal). Rabbah Racing's representative won a pair of Chantilly contests last spring, and enters on the back of two victories over this track and trip–defeating the Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum-owned duo of Tenbury Wells (Medaglia d'Oro) on Dec. 13 and the In Crowd (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) on Jan. 20.

Shadwell homebred Monaada (Giant's Causeway) broke his maiden in March of 2022 on turf, but lost his way a bit after a pair of wins in England later that year. Saturday's affair will be his first start since December of 2023.
