Ryan Moore takes over the reins on Albishr, who went close in a Listed race at Salisbury last month. But collateral form brings TIP TWO WIN into the equation on his recent Listed success at Doncaster and Roger Teal’s colt should go close. Tangled won a valuable sales race at York earlier while several less exposed types step up in class. Statuario made a winning start at Chepstow but Elarqam won a tougher race at York on his debut. Mark Johnston’s colt is entered in the Racing Post Trophy along with Morlock and Fajjaj, who also made winning debuts when successful at Kempton and Ascot respectively and could be anything.
