Tangled arrives on the back of winning a valuable sales race York where he beat GREAT PROSPECTOR a neck. But the former has already missed a couple of engagements due to soft ground this year and Richard Fahey’s colt may well reverse running on today’s surface. Alba Power finished behind the latter pair at York and the remainder also have it all to do on these terms including the likes of Danzan, Helvetian and Chookie Dunedin but Humble Gratitude may well be capable of better and is preferred to the more exposed Neola. Faraasah showed ability on his earlier debut while Ryan Moore partners maiden winner Sebastiano Ricci though both the latter and stablemate Medal Of Honour look to have a tough task.
