Mick Channon has another good chance courtesy of NASEEM ALYASMEEN who has plenty of solid maiden form in the book and stuck on really well up the testing Beverley straight last time on softened ground when hunting up Maastricht who was narrowly beaten at Bath on Monday, giving the form a solid look. She looks sure to go close and can maximise the 5lb sex allowance she receives from Behlul. Gerard Butler's Verglas colt has handled Southwell's Fibresand well on both outings which augurs well for his chances on this turf debut. His yard remains somewhat low-key though. Luctor Emergo looks an interesting newcomer for the progressive Dalgleish team, whilst Ventura Spirit has each-way claims for Richard Fahey.
