Verdict

ROCK MONTREAL looks open to any amount of improvement on the back of his comfortable Yarmouth debut success and can claim the scalp of owner-mate Nabati, whose close second to Arapaho Gold at Newbury sets the standard on form. Andrew Balding's impressive debut winner Forbidden Fire is also highly respected.
