ELEGANT MAN produced a really smart handicap performance to defy top weight in an ultra-competitive affair at Newcastle over Easter and can take the step up to Group level in his stride if proving as effective on turf. Recent Alleged Stakes 1-2 White Birch and Maxux can give Adrian Murray's charge most to do.
