Verdict

The one who appeals most is SAKHALIN STAR, who steps down in trip today having run with credit at Wetherby last time out. This distance should suit him even better, and with his good form on a synthetic surface (including over C&D), he can capitalise on a career-low mark. He faces competition in the form of Makhfar, who will look even stronger if the form of his last race is boosted by The Dukkerer in Division I of this race, while The Firm may just about be on a workable mark by now and should be winning races again soon.
