VULCAN couldn't justify support on his hurdles debut at Ascot but he still shaped really well in a race which has since been massively franked, so gets the vote. Tulin was a winner on the Flat in France and looks an interesting recruit for Paul Nicholls, while Iron Mike is a contender back down in class.
