Jewel House finished fifth last time but was no nearer to the winner than he was on his earlier debut at Newbury. Harry Beau finished closer at Salisbury without threatening but Glorious Forever gave the impression this longer trip would suit when fourth on his introduction at Redcar. KASPERENKO was expected to do better at Haydock recently given he wasn’t beaten that far when only seventh at Ascot on his debut. He gets the nod on that earlier form with Cape Cruiser and Ahlan Bil Zain newcomers to keep an eye on.
