In depth
Verdict
FINE PRINCE looks another good ride for Graham Lee as, like Pastoral Girl in the opener, he was sent to Royal Ascot last time and wasn't disgraced in finishing seventh in the Norfolk Stakes. He'd also run in the Woodcote at Epsom earlier so this is a considerable drop in grade. The Dapper Tapper was only beaten a neck on debut at Brighton but didn't improve on that at Goodwood 10 days later. Chetan has already been found wanting at this level and stablemate Amadeus Dream will probably need this but Paco's Dream may be improving, though is bred to need further than this.
