Mushaakis and Unassailable are the most likely improvers as both showed plenty of pace before fading in the closing stages of their respective debuts. The latter makes most appeal of that pair but PROFESSOR won't need to be anything special to score at the first time of asking. Richard Hannon's colt is related to a winner in Italy and is preferred to stablemate Great Run as the latter finished tailed off on his racecourse debut. The form of the remainder isn't much better and they are equally hard to fancy.
