Verdict

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH cost 420,000gns which is hardly surprising as he's by Oasis Dream out of the brilliant Attraction, who has already produced two winners. Aidan O'Brien's colt has plenty of big race entries and can make a winning debut. Dawn Approach won this for Jim Bolger last year and Club Wexford is a half-brother to the useful Teolane so, with his yard going well, he has to be a threat while the expensive yearling Sudirman is very speedily bred and it wouldn't be a shock if he were good enough. Saakhen did nothing wrong on his debut in a strong maiden at the Curragh and he was probably unfortunate not to have finished closer.
