Verdict

A half-brother to very smart hurdler/high-class chaser Sceau Royal, TOOTHLESS showed fair form in juvenile events in France early last year and, with progress anticipated representing a powerful stable, he could be the way to go on return. Liverpool Knight looks the chief threat on the back of an encouraging third at Southwell 3 weeks ago. Balgowan can emerge best of the remainder.
