WARSAW ROAD (NAP) showed progressive form last year and ended the season with a double. He wasn’t beaten far on his reappearance at Kempton and should be sharper today with Ryan Moore taking over the reins. Sayesse went close at Brighton last time but is upped in class while Mutawathea has been keeping better company on the all-weather but has yet to win on Turf in 17 attempts. Black Bess is best on soft ground but Aclimatise may do better back over today’s trip.
