Verdict

Rated 70, Vice Captain sets a moderate standard and is fitted with a hood for the first time. He’s closely matched with Haya Taal on these terms so a chance is taken on ROYAL HUSSAR. The latter showed a big improvement at Newcastle last time and any further progress would put him in the mix. Mysterious Soul may improve for this extra furlong but Beauty Generation took a step backwards at Yarmouth last week.
