Verdict
King Julien may be up against it facing rivals representing powerful NH yards. Fortified Bay’s Warwick conqueror ran second in a Listed race at Perth subsequently and he’s getting 7lb from the two previous winners. Exeter scorer Trevisani has bags of scope but TALES OF THE TWEED stayed on nicely to justify market support in a maiden at Ascot last time and should also progress further now he’s got his head in front.
