Verdict

Fuwairt ended a long losing run when scoring over 7f here and Ice Royal is upped in class after winning at Sandown. Mustaaqeem is creeping closer with every start though drops back in distance today and STRONG STEPS makes more appeal raised only 3lb after winning in this grade over track and trip in June. Hugo Palmer’s charge is taken to confirm running with runner-up Firmament. Ian's Memory remains 5lb higher than his latest win at Southwell and has not raced since March.
