Formscan - Mysterious Night was the choice of William Buick over stable companion Naval Power, before the latter was declared a non-runner, and the son of Dark Angel was a Grade 1 winner at Woodbine in September when tackling a mile for the first time. The dry forecast will aid his cause on his first run since and he warrants serious consideration. Mostabshir comes from a family connections know well, especially his half-sister Nazeef, a two-time Group 1 heroine, but he may need more time to come to himself and the vote goes to the Royal Lodge winner THE FOXES. Considered good enough to run in the Chesham at Royal Ascot, having shaped with promise on debut at Newbury, he was given time to recover before winning a Goodwood maiden and backed that up over C&D in a contest run at a slow pace. The form has worked out well, with the runner-up winning a Group 1 in France and the third landing the Zetland, and conditions are unlikely to faze him.
