Verdict

Richard Fahey began the last juvenile campaign with a winner in the Brocklesby but can't wait for Doncaster this season so sends LOST CITY, owned by Sir Alex Ferguson and Jack Hanson, for this. The 50,000gns yearling doesn't particularly have a sprinter's pedigree but he'll be well up for this and gets the vote under British champion Paul Hanagan. Jim Bolger won this in 2006 so Whip Rule is likely to be forward enough to give a good account while Kevin Prendergast, successful in 2009, will have the speedily-bred filly Pinkisthecolour in good shape.
