Verdict

MYCONIAN beat a subsequent winner at Saint-Cloud last month and Amy Murphy’s colt may well defy a penalty on that form. East Bank is another winning debutant having scored at Beverley recently while Moonstone Boy placed here at the start of the month when ahead of Blue Prince. Lochaber is speedily bred and makes most appeal of the newcomers representing last year’s winning yard.
