Planetex has the assistance of Lucy Alexander and is home and hosed if the form of his second to Nenge Mboko is taken literally as the winner that day has since landed a competitive Windsor handicap before running a fine fifth behind Magic City at Glorious Goodwood last week. However, it was only in a seller in which Planetex hunted up Nenge Mboko and the winner has obviously improved dramatically since. He's worth a saver if prices allow though with METHAALY put forward as a value option. Michael Mullineaux is having a really good time of things this season and his 10-y-o, a fine stable servant, has won 16 of 149 races, the majority over this trip to which he now returns. He goes well for an amateur or conditional and let's hope he can bring up the 150 with victory. Old boy Beckermet has place claims whilst Just The Tonic is respected but all wins to date have come over further.
