        Verdict

        Although a couple of these are Derby entries this doesn't look to be anything out of the ordinary as course maidens go and the old cliche about the betting market being the best guide will provide the best guide to this. Therefore Sharaab is only a tentative selection to lead home Son Of Greek Myth and Let The Lion Roar. The selection is bred to make an impact over this sort of trip and hails from a yard with a forty-percent strike-rate with their juveniles this season. John Gosden's runners tend to come on from their debuts so it may be prudent to employ the notebook with Son Of Greek Myth this time around.
