Al Reeh was a beaten favourite at Yarmouth and steps up in trip for this. CINQUE PORT makes more appeal as he went close over course and distance on his debut when a couple of lengths ahead of the re-opposing Al Mansor. Richard Hughes’ colt is taken to confirm running and open his account. Intrepidly and Sheikspear may finish closer on the back of modest debuts while 120,000gns purchase Call Me Grumpy is preferred to fellow newcomers Azaly and Zamalight.
