Francophile and Tengri both finished tailed off on debut. Donttellthemissis was still beaten 17 lengths when second at Market Rasen in July so this can go to the returning RAISED ON GRAZEON. Second at Doncaster and Catterick at the start of the year, he couldn't justify favouritism at Southwell in March but is probably worth another chance.
