No ill-effects for Ouija
Ed Dunlop’s Ouija Board showed no ill-effects after her long journey to Dubai from Newmarket when cantering at Nad Al Sheba on Sunday.
The Lord Derby-owned five-year-old has done all her serious work and Dunlop just intends on keeping the mare ‘ticking over’ ahead of her tilt at the 5 million Sheema Classic on Saturday.
“The difficulty in coming to Dubai, as opposed to her trip to Japan last year, is the switch from the cold to heat.
“In that regard we will try to do as little as possible with her in Dubai as she’s so clean-winded.
“Obviously, the horses who have been here all winter have the advantage of being acclimatised and the benefit of the warmer weather, but she’s in good order,” Dunlop told the Racing Post.
