from the racingpost - come on Flashy!!!
MICK CHANNON was on hand on Monday night to watch Flashy Wings and Youmzain work under the Nad Al Sheba lights as part of the final preparations before their runs in the Dubai Duty Free and Sheema Classic respectively.
Both horses completed under a circuit of the turf track, covering about 1m and working the final 3f in company with stable companions. Big-night jockey Richard Hughes was in the saddle as Youmzain worked with Compton's Eleven and the pair finished the piece of work upsides. Stamina being Youmzain's game, and his companion a sprinter, it was a decent workout.
Far more visually impressive, though, was Flashy Wings who quickened right away from Royal Power without Hughes seeming to move a muscle.
“We just wanted them to have a look at the track under lights and that was perfect,” said Channon. “Youmzain is never an exuberant worker and that was what we expected. ‘Flashy' has worked well and it is all systems go for Saturday.”
