Verdict

ARTHURIAN FAME sets the standard on form., and is open to improvement, so looks the safest option, although Fusain showed marked improvement when second last time, and isn't taken lightly. That comment also applies to Fils Spirituel, who ought to improve markedly for a pleasing introduction at Punchestown.
  1. Arthurian Fame
