Verdict
El Misk made a successful debut on Tapeta at Newmarket and showed his versatility with a comfortable victory at Kempton. He's up 6lb and on the same mark at THREE COMETS, who bounced back to form in first-time blinkers in a strong Beverley handicap where he was going on at the finish over that 1m2f trip. Universal Order has won three of his six races, two on very fast ground, and is by no means out of this in what should be a tactical battle.
