      Verdict

      Greek Revival has so far race in two very competitive two-year-old contests, finishing fifth in a Newbury maiden before a very respectable sixth in the Group 3 Norfolk Stakes at Ascot. A reproduction of those efforts should make him very difficult to beat here. Boston Lodge is the only obvious danger having improved on a poor York debut to finish third at Ayr. Further improvement should see him be competitive here but he still has plenty to find with the favourite. Don't Matter finished close up in a Bath maiden first time out and although unlikely to win here, can run into a place.
