      Verdict

      Runner-up over 7f at both Ascot and Newbury last time, SIAM FOX should stay this extra distance given his half-brother and stablemate Fox Champion won the German 2000 Guineas. The Hannon colt is preferred to Siskany, who finished fourth over a mile at Sandown on his debut with Landing System behind. The remainder have yet to threaten though it would be no surprise if Barn Owl and Expect To Succeed finished closer today representing powerful yards and the newcomer Merlin's Mission is a half-brother to a Group 3 winner.
