      Verdict

      Another field of well bred juveniles and Almushahar, out of the high class Sayyedati, looks sure to have a big say in this. He holds an entry in the Royal Lodge and also in next years Vodafone Derby, but his stable haven't had their juveniles fully tuned up first time and he may just need this. Chief Yeoman from the same family as the classy Starlet, also holds all the big race entries, as does stablemate High Action, who is related to several winners in the U.S. Lautrec is expected to prove the best of the Dunlop duo, while Henry Cecil, who has had a quite time of late with his juveniles runs Silent Storm, who comes from the same family as Group 3 winner Myself. Trade Fair, out of a mare that was unbeaten as a three-year-old in France, is another who cannot be left out of calculations. However, experience counts for quite a bit and My Fas has at least seen the racecourse and although he was beaten a fair way by Bouronnais on his debut, that run was made to look even better when the winner went on to win a Listed event this week at York.
