    Verdict

    WELL DONE FOX showed major improvement racing on fast ground over track and trip last week when just failing to catch Rumble Inthejungle. Richard Hannon’s colt looks to have leading claims on that form. Irene's Prince ran green at Bath on his debut only getting into top gear when the race was over. But he still finished well ahead of North Korea and looks the main threat given Dark Panther has shown little so far and the newcomer Dark Impulse is probably best watched.
