Verdict

TEN SOVEREIGNS absolutely annihilated his 24 rivals here in a competitive looking maiden last week and has since been talked up as a potential Group One horse and he is indeed entered for the Middle Park and Dewhurst among others. It will be very disappointing if he doesn't win this and given how his trainer's two-year-olds progress hopes are high that we could be treated to something out of the ordinary here. Servalan has the best form in the book based on her Listed win and close sixth in the Queen Mary and she is the threat. Could Be King ran well at Group Two level latest and appeals as best of the rest.
