Magsood built on the promise of his earlier form to win in good style at Beverley but a hood is fitted for this and he’s conceding weight to TOUCH THE MOON. The latter got his act together at Haydock when beaten only a head, despite failing to get a clear run, and can open his account in this. Washeek is a likely improver while Curran makes most appeal of the newcomers.
