Verdict
Prince Tum Tum has shown abundance of ability on both starts to date and is a confident TEAMtalk selection to take advantage of a straightforward opportunity. The John Dunlop-trained colt has come up against some useful opposition including a fine third behind subsequent Doncaster winner and Classic hopeful Ego and meets nothing of that calibre here. Dancing Forest has shown a fair level of form in maidens but is more exposed and looks vulnerable while Rudood flopped on his debut and has something to prove at this level.
