June 1 S.A. (Kenilworth) form analysis
Race 1 (1,500m) (4) RANDOLPH HEARST finished well to win a good race on April 21. He will love the step-up in trip. Will take some beating. (1) ALL THE RAGE stayed on nicely for third behind Dreamworld in the Grade 3 Winter Nursery on May 4. Over more ground and from a good draw, he will be right there in the finish. (3) ROLAND GARROS caught the eye last time to win his maiden in style. He will get better and stronger with more racing. (2) SIERRA SAGRADA was very disappointing on May 13. He is much better than that, and can bounce back. Race 2 (1,400m) (3) GIMMETHATPEARL ran third behind Time For Love in the Listed Ladies Mile on May 4. She can be a tricky ride, but she is packed with ability. (6) MY ONLY WEAKNESS won well on April 28. Even with a five-point penalty for that win, she will remain competitive at this level. (5) KAMCHATKA returns from a short break of 77 days. If she does not need the run, she will be amongst the places. (2) ROYALS is much better than her recent form suggests. She could surprise on her day. Race 3 (1,950m) (3) SONG TO THE MOON showed tremendous heart to win last time, even though it was a small field. He is progressive and should love this trip of 1,950m. (1) WE HAVE TOUCHDOWN ran a great race behind La Pulga on April 14. He should be right there in the finish from a good draw. (5) PINOT GRIGIO ran on strongly to win going away at the line on May 6. He was given five points for that win. Watch him closely, he will be doing some good work late. (4) DUBBELOSIX powered away from his field to win like a smart horse on April 28. He was given six points for that victory, and must have a solid winning chance again in this tricky race. Race 4 (1,950m) (2) PAST AND PRESENT got fired up by a false start and had no luck in running on May 4. This consistent sort will take a lot of beating in this open maiden race. (3) BEAUTIFUL SIDE ran a top race from a wide draw on April 21. Blinkers stay on. Nice draw. (7) COPPER PLATE showed absolutely no speed last time in the 1,200m race at Kenilworth. He should appreciate the step-up in trip, even though he will need to improve quite a bit to win. (10) MOMENT OF TRUTH is much better than his last run suggests. If he gets some cover early, he will be running on. Race 5 (1,400m) (1) LA DIVINA won a lovely race on May 13. She will go very close again from a good draw. (3) ONI SAN is slowly starting to drop in the ratings. Jockey Gavin Lerena knows her well. Solid each-way chance. (2) SWIATEK ran a fair race behind My Only Weakness on April 28 despite drawing a wide gate. She has also dropped in the ratings. Watch for an improved run from this filly. (4) KAMAKAZI ran a better race last time. She might be able to sneak into the quartet. Race 6 (1,400m) (6) BOOGIEFIED returns from a short break of 77 days. He won a super race on March 16. If he does not need the run, he will be hard to beat. (3) RHYDIAN quickened up nicely to win a good race on May 13. He looks progressive and should love this trip of 1,400m. (1) TRIPPI'S SILK has run two cracking races in a row. He has the ability, but he is also very tricky. From a good draw, he will get the run of the race. (2) ARBITRATION finished third to Chasingtherainbow in a driving finish on April 16. He looks to be getting better with more racing, and definitely has a winning chance in this field. Race 7 (1,200m) (2) ABSOLUTELY YES ran a terrific second behind Dreamworld in the Grade 3 Winter Nursery on May 4. Big say in this Listed event. (6) SHE'S MY WORLD won her maiden well at Kenilworth on May 4. She will be right in the mix. (7) CHURCHILLIAN won his maiden in style on May 6. He looks to be a nice sprinter in the making. (5) THREE TIGERS finished his race beautifully last time. He can only improve. Race 8 (1,200m) (3) ONE LINER has been rested and gelded. Well regarded by yard. He will go very close to winning. (5) CIRCUMBENDIBUS moved up like a winner in his last start. Hard to fault his recent form. (14) ESCARPMENT is slowly starting to slide in the ratings. With the right run in transit, he could certainly be in the money. (6) STREET OUTLAW was beaten just under six lengths by the winner Paratrooper last time. He is better than that, and can bounce back. Race 9 (1,200m) (3) BECKY SHARP has run two terrific seconds in succession. She can be a difficult filly, but her recent form is good. (9) ELECTROMAGNETISM won her maiden in style on May 13. She is a young filly with lots of ability, and will go close to winning again. (15) MUSIC OF THE NIGHT ran a fair race in the Listed East Cape Nursery on March 14. Rested for 79 days. If she does not need the run, she will go close. (10) COLD BREEZE quickened up beautifully to win her maiden quite well on May 13. Include her in all bets. Race 10 (1,700m) (4) MAJOR MASTER had no luck in running when a closing fourth to Pinot Grigio on May 6. From a good draw, he will go close to winning the lucky last. (11) CHASINGTHERAINBOW finished like a train to win a good race on April 16. He has a striking turn of foot, and will be finishing powerfully again. (3) CONGRESSMAN won his last two races in excellent fashion and returns from a break of 71 days. If he gets away from the field early, he will be hard to catch. (1) HOODIA did everything right last time, but was nailed st the post by Chasingtherainbow. From a good draw, he will run a massive race again.

Jordan Foils Largest Crystal Meth Trafficking Attempt in Years: 45 kg Seized - Jordan News
In a major security breakthrough, Jordanian authorities have foiled an attempt to smuggle 45 kilograms of deadly crystal meth, marking the largest seizure of the drug in recent years, according to the Public Security Directorate (PSD). اضافة اعلان The PSD spokesperson said that joint security and intelligence efforts between the Anti-Narcotics Department (AND) and other security agencies led to this significant bust. Operation Details: Intelligence reached the AND about a foreign national preparing to smuggle a large quantity of crystal meth into the country. A joint operational and investigative team was formed to verify the intel and track the suspect's movements. Investigations revealed that the drug was to be smuggled inside heavy machinery parts, transported via a commercial vehicle entering through the Al-Karama border crossing. After weeks of surveillance, authorities identified and monitored the suspect upon his arrival in Jordan. Once the vehicle arrived in the capital, officers moved in and arrested the suspect during the handover. Seizure: Upon inspection, authorities discovered 45 kilograms of crystal meth concealed within the machinery parts. The operation is being hailed as a major success in Jordan's ongoing efforts to combat the spread of highly dangerous narcotics. The PSD reaffirmed its commitment to dismantling drug networks and preventing narcotics infiltration into the Kingdom, emphasizing that such operations will continue with increased coordination and vigilance.

Authorities foil major Methamphetamine operation in Jordan
The Anti-Narcotics Department (AND) in Jordan thwarted a major attempt to manufacture crystal meth inside the country, one of the most serious drug production plots uncovered to date. The bust was part of a broader week-long crackdown that led to the arrest of 25 drug traffickers, dealers, and smugglers in nine separate cases, per a statement. A PSD spokesperson said the AND intensified intelligence and field operations, uncovering a plot by two Arab nationals attempting to produce crystal meth in a residential apartment in the northern governorate of Irbid. After months of surveillance, the suspects were apprehended during a raid, and authorities seized 15 kilograms of crystal meth along with 10 liters of precursor chemicals used in its production. In another case, a security unit raided a location in the Rwaished district, in the Manshiyet Al-Ghayath area, where they uncovered 125,000 narcotic pills and two firearms. Four suspects were arrested. Authorities also intercepted two smuggling attempts at the Jaber Border Crossing in coordination with the Customs Department. One operation involved 12,000 pills and half a kilogram of crystal meth concealed in candy and chocolate packaging. In the second, 65,000 pills were hidden inside cartons of cigarettes. The smugglers were detained. A major security sweep in the Jabal Al-Taj area of Amman resulted in the arrest of eight drug dealers, including an armed suspect classified as dangerous. Various narcotics were confiscated during the raid. In the northern Badia region, two suspects using social media to sell pills were arrested with 7,000 pills in their possession. Another dealer was caught in Aqaba transporting drugs to the capital with 12,000 pills, crystal meth, and marijuana.
