Verdict

Safe to say that a number of these horses are potentially better than they've shown so far, with the €420,000 yearling Slipstream very much a case in point. Therefore, the market might prove informative with regards the potential winner. Valdolobo represents leading northern based owner John Dance, and he ran well on debut (solid form) before a rather tepid effort next time at Redcar. Tamkeen showed clear ability as a juvenile, but lines up for his seasonal appearance against the race-fit BACACARAT. His Newmarket third to Port Swtan is the best recent form on offer, and he should relish this slightly longer trip.
