Mister Brightside's close second to Gossiping at Windsor looked a good run but the winner, third and fourth have all been beaten subsequently. Vale Of Iron hasn't been running badly but is well and truly exposed and Castle Talbot hasn't been seen since a poor run over the track and trip in October. Call Out Loud should do better in his second season but this shouldn't take too much winning and can go to the only newcomer LET'S GO. Saeed Bin Suroor's charge cost 300,000gns and though Godolphin wouldn't have expected him to be gelded and be starting off here he has a very smart pedigree and can get off to a successful start.
