In depth
Verdict
Bumper winner Where's Tom made a winning debut in this code when scoring over 1m4f at Lingfield and Yuri Gagarin landed the odds over a mile at Newcastle on his introduction. Both are conceding plenty of weight to the three-year-olds in this including Wolverhampton runner-up Cityzen Serg but PRINCE IMPERIAL is preferred. The Frankel colt scored over a mile at Chelmsford last time and the half-brother to a Listed winner over 1m4f is expected to stay this far. Labeebb is the first foal of a Listed winner but has undergone wind surgery and is fitted with a tongue-tie on his debut.
