Verdict

Arabian Falcon produced a better effort when fifth at Goodwood a fortnight ago and should be involved in the finish, while Tight Lipped made a promising debut at Beverley and can also figure. Better is expected from Evervescent and Fiction Or Fact, but this can go to FORTROSE ACADEMY. He's a half-brother to five winners and with Andrew Balding's string in fine form it would be no surprise if he proves good enough on his debut. Dylan's Dream is related to a couple of juvenile winners and is also worth noting along with fellow newcomer Lupo D'Oro.
