Verdict

A cracking 3yo handicap in which William Haggas' improving Sea The Stars colt DHUSHAN is fancied to emerge on top and complete a hat-trick before tackling better company in the autumn. Impressive Newbury scorer Surrey Gold is another with much better days ahead of him and rates next on the list, with First Light, Mystical Dawn and Pleasant Man also much respected in a very hot heat.

  1. DHUSHAN (IRE)
  2. SURREY GOLD (IRE)
  3. FIRST LIGHT
