      Verdict

      DARK DESTROYER failed to see out a mile when last seen at the track but is rated 80 on earlier efforts over 6f at Newmarket and York. He should have the measure of the the frustrating Coral Sea on these terms. The latter has been placed in all six starts now including a second at Wolverhampton last month while Jack Flash has a shout for new connections on his form in Ireland but has not raced since July. Fille The Force is a sister to a winner on the all-weather and a newcomer to note.
