THE LAST EMPEROR can build on his promising seasonal debut at Haydock last month by registering his first victory here. The selection should have improved for that effort and can get the better of Michele Strogoff who has been in good form in recent starts. Mushtaq put in a decent effort when placed over this trip last time and can claim third.
