Max Mayhem gives Kobeissi first overseas win at Meydan Racecourse
Gulf Today
|March 16, 2025
It might have been the final meeting of the Dubai Racing Carnival but 14 March 2025 will live long in the memory of Hilal Kobeissi.

The British trainer collected a first overseas winner when Max Mayhem stormed home in the featured Longines Spirit Flyback Handicap.
The seven-year-old was making his fourth start of the Carnival, but was much the best here, set- tling towards the back of the field in the 241Ometre contest. Jockey Adrie de Vries was patient, asking his mount for an effort with 40Ometres left to go and charging home by three and a half lengths from Valdivia.
The race was also notable for the return of De Vries, after some time out through injury.
"I clipped heels and had a bad fall a few weeks ago," he said. "It was a very frustrating couple of weeks, I missed a few nice rides, but I'm lucky to be back so quickly. Everything seems fine."

I’m a school teacher: SEND provision changes lives
In the foreword to a report by the centre-right think tank Policy Exchange, the former health secretary Jeremy Hunt argues that children are being overdiagnosed with mental health and neurodivergent conditions. In England, one in five children has been identified with additional needs, and Hunt says that the rise in Send spending “risks the financial sustainability of local government.” The idea of this claimed “overdiagnosis” is baffling to me because, as a secondary school teacher, I've seen firsthand how labyrinthine and difficult the process is.
