Verdict

Turtle Magic and Seasons Estates have already shown ability and must be respected here, however we will take a chance on a newcomer and give Elgin Marbles the vote. Richard Hannon has his string in fine fettle, especially his two-year-olds, and this son of Lujain, who cost 28 thousand guineas as a yearling, is reported well forward and is expected to go close. Turtle Magic has run with distinction in three modest contests and should again figure in the finish. Seasons Estates finished a close up fourth on her Warwick debut and with the winner successful again on Saturday Rod Millman's filly has to be considered. The other debutante to note in the betting is Andrew Balding's Alsu, but without the help of the ring we will take a chance with Elgin Marbles.
