In depth

Verdict

All have claims of one sort or another but PARLEY can atone for a poor latest effort when a well-beaten, heavily-punted favourite in a decent Hamilton contest. Previously, the Street Cry filly had performed creditably in a fair Newmarket handicap, a repeat of which would put her bang in the picture on this first sortie over a mile and a quarter. Amazing Blue Sky should deliver his usual consistent effort despite topweight, whilst Euston Square is another danger if reproducing a much-improved effort behind St Ignatius at Haydock last month. Gala Casino Star, who has the same conditions to face when scoring last time under today's pilot, completes the shortlist.
