Tracked leader, challenged when pace quickened over 2f out, ridden over 1f out, kept on and every chance inside final furlong, held towards finish op 4/1 tchd 11/4
Mystique Moon (10/11), Indian Dandy (3/1), Portledge (4/1), Ronnie The Rooster (9/1)
Ronnie The Rooster seeks a course hat-trick having been raised a combined total of 11lb for his two victories, but despite the small field, he is pitched in against better rivals tonight. Indian Dandy has already won over this trip, but his opening mark of 77 looks high enough set against the 450,000 Guineas yearling MYSTIQUE MOON. The Charlie Appleby trained gelding has already won on this Tapeta surface at Wolverhampton and looks sure to appreciate this longer trip and more galloping track. He rates as a most confident selection in the opener.
