Verdict

BARROLO took another step forward as he made it 4 wins from 5 starts in handicaps with a bit to spare at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and, still unexposed at this trip, all looks set fair for another big run from Grant Tuer's progressive 3-y-o. Fellow 3-y-o Fleur de Mer is improving herself and feared along with Western Beat. Queen of Sparta is one to note in the betting now handicapping for her shrewd stable.

  1. BARROLO
  2. FLEUR DE MER (IRE)
  3. WESTERN BEAT (IRE)
