Verdict

FANTASTIC FOX is a 3-y-o heading in the right direction and is taken to defy the handicapper and follow up last month's Haydock success. Uncle Bryn is on a bit of a retrieval mission but he does retain potential as a lightly-raced 3-y-o from a top yard, while Walhaan has found winning difficult in Britain but is thereabouts on his latest Newbury third.

  1. FANTASTIC FOX
