But the complexion of the race changed dramatically in the straight as Gentleman's Deal picked up in good style to win going away. An imposing sort who should be open to improvement and be suited by further, Gentleman's Deal has presumably had his problems - this was only a fourth run for the 5yo - but if he can be kept sound then he could prove a real money-spinner for his new connections.
Moayed fared a bit better than at Wolverhampton on Saturday but was still well-held and he is proving difficult to win with these days, while Cardinal Venture, disappointing when last seen in early November, again failed to sustain his challenge in the straight.
*Mickey Fenton reported that One More Round had hung to the right.
