MOROCCO makes his racecourse debut and is fancied to land this especially if the betting speaks in his favour. John Gosden's colt has a winning half-brother and makes more appeal than fellow newcomer Tatty. The main dangers are returning from lay-offs but both Anaconda and Cryptic Choice failed to build on their promising debuts at Deauville and Newmarket respectively when last seen at the track. Beckfield Point has shown nothing so far and it's difficult to make a case for him.
