The lightly-raced AUTHORIZED MISSION has progressed with experience and looked a different model when scoring over a longer trip at this course last month. He's taken to follow up that victory at the expense of hat-trick seeking Aire Spray, who will find the extra furlong in his favour, and Galahad Threepwood, who was only bettered by a couple of unexposed horses last time out.
