Verdict

In a cracking renewal ZEUS OLYMPIOS is taken to resume his progression with an outing under his belt and get the better of fellow highly promising 4-y-o Damysus, an impressive winner of the Earl of Sefton on his Newmarket reappearance. Notable Speech has shown his best recent form outside of Britain but will be a threat to all if on his game. A defeat in the Foret last autumn shouldn't be taken to suggest More Thunder's progress has come to an end and he also merits plenty of respect.

  1. ZEUS OLYMPIOS
  2. DAMYSUS
  3. NOTABLE SPEECH
