Verdict

It's rare that one of Hughie Morrison;s finishes close up on debut and when they do, they're always worth a look next time, so STARCASTER is very interesting here. With improvement almost guaranteed, he can prove hard to beat. Loxley looks a likely type on paper as well, and this trip should be ideal, so if the market speaks in his favour, he needs careful consideration. Perfect Blue and Istanbul Sultan can fight out the minors.
