Verdict

Lady Phill is the only one with experience and finished second to a Mark Johnston inmate at Brighton last week. The latter runs Opt Out here, a half-brother to seven winners including the high-class Court Masterpiece. He could prove good enough on his debut and makes more appeal than both Augustinian and Pairumani Prince who are bred to need further in time. Sutton Sid and Birdie Queen are worth noting but TOUGH QUESTION is a half-brother to four winners, including speedy types Cool Question and Countdown who both won over today's trip as two-year-olds, and Michael Madgwick's newcomer can follow suit.
