Verdict

PHANTOM FLIGHT is a cracking flag-bearer for his burgeoning stable and can notch up another success raised in class on the back of his impressive York win. Royal Champion should have more to offer and is a big player down in grade. Euchen Glen, second last year, can make his presence felt in the race again.
