In depth
Verdict
Of those to have raced, Doncaster runner-up Beatbox Rhythm sets the standard, but there are some nicely-bred debutants in opposition, most notably CHIEF JUSTICE , Capesthorne and Dowitcher . The market will be the best guide to their chances, but it is interesting that the selection cost much more at two than he did as a yearling so he must be an imposing sort for a stable in good form with its juveniles.
