If the form of his debut can be trusted,
MR MINERALS could take all the beating here. Richard Hughes' charge was very well backed on debut and won as he liked. An opening mark of 80 could be lenient, therefore, especially if he is able to improve from that in what is undoubtedly a tougher race. He looks to have the edge on fellow handicap debutant
Gloriosus, who is a 1lb higher than him despite impressing less during three maidens, while
Tafaakhor has been running some fair races recently and should enjoy this step up in trip.
