Verdict

DRUIDS GLEN very much looked a work in progress in 2 starts over shorter as a juvenile and Aidan O'Brien's choicely-bred colt can improve hiked up in trip and open his account on his return. Similar comments apply to Dermot Weld's Irish Derby entrant Bay of Stars and he commands a close look. Mendez is entitled to improve after his encouraging debut at 100/1 here 7 weeks ago.
