In depth

Verdict

SUPERSTA (NAP) did not get the best of runs over track and trip a fortnight ago but burst through to land a hat-trick once in the clear. He's worth sticking with in his current form and can confirm running with the second Tommy's Secret. The latter had earlier beaten Charlies Mate here while Exceeding Power won a lower grade contest over 7f at Lingfield last time. Fantasy Gladiator went close in similar company earlier and Excellent Guest may yet get his head in front this year off his current mark.
