DAQEEQ finished clear of the rest when third at Nottingham on his racecourse debut. Simon Crisford's colt should confirm running with Rubensian and looks to have stronger form than Loading. The latter has been given a handicap mark of 80 after going close at Chelmsford and can figure ahead of the likes of likely improvers Head High and Mystique Heights. The remainder have shown little so far including De Aguilar and blinkers are applied to Tartan Bute for his debut.
