Verdict
Young John wasn't beaten far when fifth at Doncaster, though seems better on softer going. MAJDOOL could cap a good day for follower of Paul Hanagan. He has only won on the all-weather so far but ran well at Newmarket last July and will handle the fast ground. King of Naples won easily at Redcar but didn't beat much. However, he's open to further improvement as is Kempton winner Rosenborg Rider upped in trip. Fashaak and Viscount Barfield are other recent winners while Lagenda did better than expected in a tough handicap at York and makes more appeal than Calder Prince at the weights.
