Smullen Impressed With Mustajeeb Mustajeeb tries to strike at Royal Ascot for the second year in a row when he tackles an international field in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes on Saturday. Dermot Weld's 2014 Jersey Stakes winner was successful on his return when dropped to six furlongs in the Greenlands Stakes. Jockey Pat Smullen said: "I couldn't have been more impressed with him (at the Curragh). He looked big in the ring, you'd like to think he'll improve from that and if he does, it leaves him there among the best sprinters around. "Let's hope he goes and takes a step forward and I think he's got a big chance." Moviesta was an unlucky loser in the Prix de l'Abbaye over five furlongs last season but after disappointing in Dubai, he was switched to Eddie Lynam and has his first run for his new trainer. "We're happy with him and his work's gone good. Obviously I would have loved to have got a race into him, I didn't, but he did another piece of work at the Curragh," said Lynam. "It's a huge ask, but he's training very well and he's got some very good form. He should run a very good race. He ticks all the right boxes. "I'm going six rather than five with him because he's working like a good six-furlong horse. Maybe after the run I'll bring him back to five." Aidan O'Brien runs Due Diligence, who disappointed on his only start since finishing second in this 12 months ago. "He had a setback last year after Ascot and didn't run after that," said O'Brien. "The first time back it was soft ground. Joseph (O'Brien) rode him and was very happy. We gave him plenty of time and everything has gone well. We're very happy. "Six furlongs on fast ground will suit him."
