The HH Sheikh Mansoor bin Zayed Al Nahyan Cup holds prestigious status run over the 1200 and the win added to Patrick Dobbs win count in the saddle.
The season so far for Dobbs has seen him cross the line first 15 times from 82 runs for the 44-year-old Irish product.
The hoop showed his skills once again producing his mount As Qoot to hit the lead in the final 75m and come away with the win for trainer Khalifa Al Neyadi in the colours of Sheikh Hamed bin Khadim bin Butti.

The win made it three straight for the 5YO mare after she broke her maiden in March last year over the further 1600m.
Richard Mullen proves his ability and love for racing through the UAE with another double at the Sharjah races.
His first win for the night came in race two set up for horses foaled in the UAE, with him piloting the 6YO Taajer to lead in the final 200m to win well for trainer Salem Al Ketbi.

This was the second career win, from 25 starts, for the gelded son of Al Nasr since winning at the Sharjah track in February last year, delivering his maiden.
The trainer-jockey-owner partnership combined again, making it a double for the night an hour later after 4YO Makhtar broke his maiden in his fourth career start (1-1-1)

Trainer Doug Watson returned to the winner’s circle after delivering a winning treble at Jebel Ali on Saturday night.
In the finale of the night and the only race on the card set for thoroughbreds, the Watson prepared Obeyaan took the spoils before wrapping up the Sharjah meeting.
Jockey Sam Withcott brought the 6YO gelding up to swamp them on the line in a classy but calm ride to win by a neck on the line for Watson and Sultan Ismail Ahmad Abdulla Albalooshi.
The win made it two career wins for Obeyaan and the first win at the track at his sixth attempt in Sharjah.
