In depth

Verdict

A particularly poor contest that should take little winning and Mostarsil, who was an easy winner over this trip in a similar heat at Bath last time, is the TEAMtalk choice to follow up. Karakum is best in according to the official assessor but looks harshly treated on what he has achieved while Istanbul appears a difficult ride and I Tina shapes as though needing further.
