      Verdict

      HEAVEN FORFEND has proved frustrating in maiden and novice company though is still rated 79. He’s been gelded and undergone a wind operation since last in action and Sir Michael Stoute’s charge looks worth another chance in this. Thrill Seeker will be sharper for a recent reappearance while Byford took a trip over to the French provinces to win a maiden and is penalised. Lost Eden is a 200,000gns purchase related to winners in France and is preferred to Real World of the newcomers.
