Starshell has now returned a losing favourite on his last four outings after failing to land the odds at Carlisle. Tewafeedj won at Thirsk last month but was beaten out of sight last time while Ablaze has failed to figure since landing a seller at Lingfield in July. GLASSALT was having her first start since May when third in a maiden handicap at Yarmouth last month but this doesn’t look any tougher and she may prove good enough stepping up in trip. Bermondsey Belle and Snowy Winter look best of the rest.
