MORNING CHIEF won readily at Kempton in maiden company and she does not look to have been overfaced with a mark of 73 allocated for this evening. Mustakmil has gone up by just 2lb for victory at Kempton. He has traditionally shown his best form at this time of the season. Tarooq is not short of early pace and we can expect to see him up in the early stages. Desert Vision has struggled over slightly further so this drop would be interesting, especially as Mick Easterby's yard have managed to pick up a couple of handicaps over the last few days.
