Tai Hang Dragon finished a lot closer at Lingfield last time without looking like winning and steps up in trip. Fast Landing failed to get involved at Chelmsford on his debut so a chance is taken on another Godolphin runner, MYSTIQUE MOON. This won’t take much winning and Charlie Appleby’s 450,000gns gelding may prove good enough. River Warrior and Easy Wind are other newcomers to note in an uninspiring maiden.
