TURKESTAN shaped better than the result suggested at Haydock on his first run since a gelding operation and he can gain a first career success here. Apex King may appreciate the return to an artificial surface and should be involved in the finish. Earth And Sky has been running creditably in some competitive races and can't be discounted.
