    Verdict

    William Bligh will likely improve over this longer trip but will need to up against a couple of Godolphin newcomers. Yibir is a half-brother to the smart Wild Illusion but fitted with headgear for his debut and stablemate MASTER OF THE SEAS is preferred. A half-brother to seven winners, Charlie Appleby’s colt is taken to make a winning start. Legion Of Honour cost £280,000 though his dam failed to win while Lightning War is the first foal of a winner in France.
