Verdict
Savoy Chapel is lumbered with the vote ahead of Mytton's Dream, Grezie and Val d'Isere. It is with very little confidence that Savoy Chapel is take to open his account. Jamie Osborne normally knows how to get the best out of his juveniles but has struggled to get a tune out of Savoy Capel so far. The son of Xaar, who cost 32,000gns as a yearling, failed to respond to first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton but was at least a fair fourth. He can only get better and we shall give him another chance. Mytton's Dream probably needed the run after an 11-week break on her fibresand debut so may improve as a result. Grezie has joined George Margarson since winning a Lingfield claimer quite well and may have more to offer, while Val d'Isere will certainly have to find a bit more than she has shown so far to figure. Savoy Chapel is the selection to the smallest of stakes possible.
