Verdict

The ground was on the soft side when STAR SHIELD won nicely at Redcar last time and he should take some stopping here despite his penalty. The presence of top Japanese rider Yuga Kawada is a bonus. Thunderbolt Rocks hasn't been seen for nine months since winning at Wolverhampton so must have had an issue. He is respected but may be better for this return run. Juthoor's only decent effort came here two starts ago and the return to this tarack could see him run well again, while Shawaamekh is not completely out of it after a fair effort last time. Fire To The Reign looks most interesting of the newcomers.
  1. Star Shield
  2. Juthoor
  3. Thunderbolt Rocks
