Verdict

Timeform's three leading juveniles of last year line up in the first Classic of 2022 and it's hard to look beyond NATIVE TRAIL after his pleasing return in the Craven. That took his unbeaten run to 5 and he looks set to improve again, with a well-run Guineas sure to suit him. Aidan O'Brien seeks a remarkable sixth winner since 2012, with Luxembourg following the same route as several others before him, including his sire. Coroebus, a stablemate of the selection, is exciting and highly respected.
