Verdict

PERFECT PREDATOR sets what is just a fair standard, but he seems likely to give his running and may do better assuming he can improve his jumping in this sphere. Stablemate Kings Royal Hussar gets lumps of weight as a juvenile, and could turn out to be the main danger if taking to a hood, although Global Society and Unai are others open to significant improvement, and could easily spoil the party.
  1. Perfect Predator
  2. Kings Royal Hussar
