Verdict
Red Fort is a half-brother to a winner in Ireland but stablemate FOX ISLAND has the benefit of experience having finished fourth at Leicester when held up well off the pace. Newcastle third Roll It In Glitter needs more but Alaskan Point wasn’t disgraced at Ascot and has scope while any market interest in newcomers The Goat and especially Struth, who is a half-brother to five winners, should be heeded.
