Verdict

BROOKLYN NINE NINE still looked inexperienced when runner-up on his handicap debut at Ripon a month ago, but he got the hang of things late and can build on that effort (with cheekpieces on first-time) to resume winning ways. Striking Star has finished second on all 3 starts this year and can be thereabouts once more, with Grenham Bay also respected in his hat-trick bid.

  1. BROOKLYN NINE NINE (IRE)
  2. STRIKING STAR
