ME TOO NAGASAKI will have gone into plenty of notebooks after making up lots of late ground to finish fourth at Newbury on his debut. The Noseda colt will know more here and gets the nod ahead of Desert Grey, who showed a big improvement on his latest start at Lingfield after a couple of poor efforts. Shabeeh has failed to match his earlier debut second in subsequent starts so 95,000 euros purchase Al Sail may prove best of the others.
