Saturday's Listed Jumeirah 1000 Guineas saw the same one-two-three finishers as the Jan. 31 Mawj Stakes at Meydan, which kicked off Dubai's Super Saturday programme. Godolphin's MOUNTAIN BREEZE (IRE) (f, 3, Lope De Vega {Ire}–Lava Flow {Ire}, by Dalakhani {Ire}) settled in the box seat, before overwhelming game pacesetter Octans (Spa) (The Grey Gatsby {Ire}) inside the final quarter mile to win going away under William Buick. Lhakpa (Ire) (Siyouni {Fr}) closed to take third. The final time for the 1600 metres over good turf was 1:38.06. The Godolphin homebred and 'TDN Rising Star' was winning for the fourth time in eight starts, and was runner-up at Newmarket in both the G2 Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes and the G3 Sweet Solera Stakes earlier in her career. Lifetime Record: 8-4-2-0.
O/B-Godolphin (Ire). T-Charlie Appleby.
