All bar The Foxes are entered in the Two Thousand Guineas - he's entered in the Irish version and the Derby - though none of them were at shorter than 25/1 in the ante-post lists beforehand and 4 of them were at triple-figure odds, including the winner; that doesn't suggest a Craven that ought to have a major bearing on the classic, though the winner, beaten twice by Chaldean at 2 yrs, showed improvement and produced a performance around standard for the race, the runner-up shaping well with longer distances in mind; the field raced up the centre, the first 2 more towards the near side, though the action ended up much more towards the far rail.

INDESTRUCTIBLE (IRE) on first outing since leaving Michael O'Callaghan after 7 months off, proved better than ever, putting himself in the Guineas picture and paying quite a compliment to Chaldean, who beat him twice last year, still more needed if he's to turn the tables on that one or better Auguste Rodin; prominent, raced freely, led after 2f, headed halfway, shaken up over 2f out, rallied to lead again final 1f, ridden out.

THE FOXES (IRE) had created a generally favourable impression at 2 yrs and built on that with a smart effort on his first outing since September, likely that there will be more still to come when he goes over further (will stay at least 1¼m), a Derby trial surely the next option for him; held up initially, took keen hold, headway after 2f, led on bridle 2f out, shaken up soon after, hung right, headed final 1f, one paced.

DANCING MAGIC (IRE) still a maiden, showed improved form after 6 months off, continuing to be highly tried, as he was at 2 yrs; led 2f, close up after, led again halfway, headed 2f out, not quicken, kept on late on; he will be suited by further than 1m.

ANCESTRAL LAND after 6 months off and over 1f longer trip, ran to a similar level as when third in the Horris Hill on his final start at 2 yrs, and that despite not seeming at ease on the track, failing to handle the Dip once off the bridle; prominent, shaken up over 2f out, wandered, one paced; he may yet do better, with a drop back to 7f likely to show him to at least as good advantage.

MOSTABSHIR looking as if the race would do him good after 5 months off, ran to a similar level as on debut, his lack of experience holding him back at this higher level; waited with, took keen hold, shaken up 3f out, ran green, left behind 2f out; he remains open to improvement.

MR MISTOFFELEES (IRE) would have been getting 20 lb or more from these in a handicap and although beating only one home, he appeared to show plenty of improvement after 4 months off, clearly well regarded (entered in Guineas and Derby) and by no means outclassed in the paddock, so credited with the effort for now; held up, pushed along soon after halfway, left behind over 2f out.

MYSTERIOUS NIGHT (IRE) looked the form pick on his win in Canada on his final start, but he ran poorly after 7 months off, connections unable to offer an explanation afterwards, though possibly softer ground than previously was a factor; in rear, shaken up 3f out, left behind 2f out.
