Noble on a mission

Thursday's 14.15 Group 3 Huxley Stakes at Chester sees the quick return to action of Noble Mission and Telescope after their duel a fortnight ago at Sandown. Frankel's brother won that last match easily by 9 lengths, the margin probably flattered by the lack of fitness of Telescope who faltered badly in the end. The latter will certainly be better wound up this time round and close the gap with Noble Mission. I cannot see those 2 sons of Galileo being out of the first 3 and they are both fancied as placings on the exchanges (first 3 placed), with Noble Mission again prevailing at the finish.

Win: Noble Mission
Place: Noble Mission, Telescope
