Mysterious Man was stepped up to 1m4f for his reappearance and held on for second having led for most of the way. King Of Dudes was well beaten over a longer trip at this track on his reappearance but may finish closer on today's better ground while Hyperlink finished runner-up over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and blinkers are applied here. Sir Michael Stoute won a division of this last year and GALLEON could prove a different proposition stretching out in distance after a three length defeat over a mile on his debut. He gets the nod with Sun Central and the Gosden newcomers Mashaari and Nabucco both worth a second look.
