In depth

Verdict

Mongolia had fair form for Richard Hannon without getting her head in front so it'll be interesting to see if Michael Appleby can eke any improvement out of the Maxios filly. Menin Gate has also yet to visit the winner's circle but houses a similar profile and should be in the shake-up. Celtic Classic arrives in fair form and this looks the ideal trip for Paul Cole's charge but others are less exposed.Kasuku is one but the choice is TAMOK, who showed much more on his handicap debut and should progress further for this step up in trip.
