Mary Reveley usually introduces a useful sort in these type of events so it may pay to rely on Rouge Et Noir to make a winning debut over One Five Eight in the finale. Rouge Et Noir has a good Flat pedigree, being a son of Hernando out of a Gorytus mare, and if he has inherited any sort of speed, could be too good for these. One Five Eight showed little on his introduction and saw the backside of potentially useful Thyne For Intersky here recently. He has the potential to be a decent chaser in time, but has he got the speed for this. Oscar The Boxer comes from a yard that also do well in this sphere and if the market speaks in his favour he can prove troublesome. it is not a strong contest though and Rouge Et Noir may be sharp enough first time to oblige.
