Verdict

WONDER STARELZAAM did well to get up at Windsor last time on his first turf start for this yard and, unexposed at the trip, is taken to make light of a 4 lb rise. The Whipmaster rates an obvious danger on the back of his Lingfield since, while Eton Blue was a good third to the selection at Windsor and also makes the shortlist.

  1. WONDER STARELZAAM (IRE)
  2. THE WHIPMASTER (IRE)
  3. ETON BLUE (IRE)
