Verdict

St Andrew's Castle beat STROMBOLI by only a nose over track and trip last month. The latter has obvious claims of turning the tables on more favourable terms and David O’Meara’s colt gets the vote. Claim The Stars ran as though something was amiss when sent off favourite at York having placed here before that while Tricky Business looks best of the remainder with racecourse experience. The 150,000gns purchase Last Crusader is a newcomer to note given he’s entered in the Gimcrack.
