A really interesting opener to the card and we will side with SIR ANTONY BROWNE to come home in front. Alan King's runners are going well and this five-year-old will surely do better in time with a step up in trip, though he makes plenty of appeal today. Not Never should have learned a fair bit from his debut and has the Flat speed to get heavily involved if he can jump better, while Mister Majic and Azzuri are among several others who should be in the with a shout of prize money. Midnight Maestro will have to be pretty useful to win under his penalty. 1. Sir Antony Browne 2. Not Never 3. Azzuri
