ESTIDRAAK made a bold bid on his debut when sent off favourite at Wolverhampton and Sir Michael Stoute's colt can go one better in this. Paul Hanagan prefers the latter to Leicester fourth Mithqaal and the newcomer Raasmaal but Coherent may get involved after a modest debut at Newmarket. Palmerston is a half-brother to Listed winner Martlet and worth noting along with Dusty Raven and David Elsworth's duo Norse Castle and Daylight Robbery.
