Verdict
A tricky two-year-old sprint kicks thing off, where Great Fox could be the answer, with After All and Westborough put forward as the main dangers. Great Fox has come up against some decent juveniles on his two runs to date, he was well beaten by John Gosden's Phantom Wind at Newmarket eleven days ago, and prior to that occupied the third spot behind I Won't Dance and Ryadal. On both occasions he jinked violently left, that may have been just down to greenness, so with the experience of those two efforts under his belt he should dispose of these rivals. After All may provide the biggest threat, she was well supported on her last outing at Musselburgh, when just failing to hold off the challenge of Feu Duty, the race was quite moderate but Gerard Butler's filly has scope for further improvement. Of the others Westborough has shown signs of ability and should make the frame, however for the winner it has to be Great Fox
