Verdict

Most of these have a bit to prove at present but Film Star went close on his handicap debut over track and trip three weeks ago and is only 2lb higher. MISTER X and Storyinthesand were behind that day but both are better off at the weights and Stuart Williams’ charge didn’t really enjoy the run of the race down the centre of the track. Estehwadh’s third behind Quinault here last month has certainly been franked but he was beaten almost seven lengths.
