Verdict

Having come within a whisker of landing the French Derby, Andre Fabre's WALDGEIST proved his class when finishing a close-up fourth in a much stronger Irish equivalent. In receipt of allowances, it's hard to believe a run-of-the-mill Group 3 of this nature isn't within his range. If there is a danger, it is likely to emerge in the shape of Secret Number who doesn't have too many miles on the clock despite his advancing years and who looked as good as ever when close up in similar company at Newbury last time. One-time Derby fancy Midterm looks the most interesting of the remainder despite a lacklustre effort last time.
  1. Waldgeist
  2. Secret Number
  3. Midterm
