Verdict

Paul Hanagan prefers Muatadel to Alshalaal though the former was well beaten when third over 5f at Chelmsford. Grizzly Bear never threatened the winner either when placed at Leicester and one of the newcomers may prove good enough. Jintshi is related to three winners while the 80,000gns yearling Experto Crede was sold for 290,000gns as a two-year-old and is another to note. But Ryan Moore's presence on DARK FOREST suggests a big run is expected from the Hannon colt and he gets a speculative vote to make a winning start ahead of stablemate Dyllan.
