Verdict

A modest contest which can go the way of the evergreen Hibernate. Runner-up in a similar contest over course and distance, behind Future Coup, he is taken to reverse the form with his rival on these terms. The third in that event Edifice, is tried in a visorand if that has the desired effect, he too will go close. Bhutan has plenty of ability, but he cannot be relied upon to use it.
