MSAYYAN just failed to catch the winner at Kempton a fortnight ago on his racecourse debut. That’s the strongest form on offer and he can open his account with normal progress. Ghazan showed a slight improvement at Leicester last time and Corgi and Feragust will likely finish closer on the back of modest debut efforts. My Lord And Master and Victory Chime have early entries in the Derby while fellow newcomer Strongarm Chaser is a half-brother to the smart Ventura Storm, a Group 1 winner in Italy.
