Analysis: ADJUDI MITSUO can upset this field, which does not include America's best older horses. He rates higher than Personal Rush, who was 11 3/4 lengths behind Ghostzapper in the BC Classic and then 12 lengths behind Adjudi Mitsuo in the Tokyo Daishoten. Adjudi Mitsuo split Time Paradox and Admire Don, the first two in the Japan Cup Dirt, when he was second in the JBC Classic. Has drawn wide but inside America's best hope, ROSES IN MAY who, like all of the U.S. invaders, is a question going 1 1/4 miles. CONGRATS was closing in the Big Cap and should be running late. JACK SULLIVAN has been knocking heads with Dubai's best all winter. DYNEVER's race in Riyadh was little more than a 2-mile gallop but he always finds a few better than himself. LUNDY'S LIABILITY won the UAE Deby here last year but failed to stay 10 furlongs in the Big Cap. CHIQUITIN may have been flattered in taking the course and distance prep for this. Faces tougher here. Questions surround lone Godolphin entry GRAND HOMBRE, who bruised a foot in training on Tuesday.
