Verdict

Unbeaten in his first 3 starts, ROYAL FLEET was far from disgraced when fifth in a competitive 3-y-o handicap at the Ebor Meeting last month, the steady gallop on the day not aiding his cause. He remains one to be positive about, not least on the back of just 4 career outings, and a good pace to aim at can see him in the mix. Dance Fever and Raadobarg may pose the chief threats.
