Successful in a course novice over shorter last term, GENTLEMAN DE MAI shaped with plenty of promise when fifth on his recent return/handicap debut at Kelso, not well served by the steady gallop and noted finishing with running left. Very much on a handy mark, he gets the nod to confirm the promise of that run, with likeable mare Charm Offensive and Gold Emery others fancied to be in the mix.
