Verdict

Some top yards represented here including Sir Michael Stoute with Adversity, John Gosden with Prohibit, and Mark Johnston with Hieroglyph and we will just side with the first named. The yard are in flying form at present and this well bred son of Oasis Dream, owned by Sir Alex Ferguson, will no doubt be fit and ready to run for his life. Hieroglyph ran a race full of promise when sixth to Errigal Lad at Haydock and as with many of the Johnston juveniles she should improve for the run. Prohibit was thought good enough to run in a conditions race on his debut and connections were spot on as he was only just touched off by the more experienced Kal Borg. With that run under his belt the Gosden entry will be hard to beat. Lemon N Sugar is another worthy of respect, but Adversity looks the part on paper and he can land this before moving on to better things.
