William Haggas has his string in great nick so it could pay to side with his Dubawi colt MORSHDI to make a winning start and thwart Esna, who shaped well when a debut runner-up over C&D and rates a big threat. Andrew Balding's debutant Montague Menace also needs considering, especially if the market vibes are positive.
