GALAWI found one too good when sent off favourite on the all-weather track here in March. He’ll be sharper for that and should go close with normal progress. Superhon, Kourking and Mystery Road have all raced this year but several of those returning to action are expected to improve past them including Andre Fabre’s Grey Falcon and Longchamp fifth Musical Mast. Legende D'art and Nougayork are others to note in the betting along with the newcomer Bois D'argent.
