Verdict

This looks a one-horse race and a golden opportunity at that for the 1,000,000gns Godolphin representative, VOLKAN STAR, to make amends for his narrow defeat on debut at Newmarket where he looked all over the winner until being nabbed right on the line. They will be playing for places in behind and Oslo looks the most natural option to finish second after suggesting a step up in trip would see him in a better light when finishing in midfield at Kempton recently. Hold Fast is likely to be a different proposition altogether after she ran very green here on debut over 7f in what has always been a decent maiden in years gone by.
  1. Volkan Star
  2. Oslo
  3. Hold Fast
