      Verdict

      Showtime Star returns to maiden company after a disappointing effort over 5f at Catterick. He's well clear of Bannock Town and Lady Calantha on official handicap ratings but BIFOCAL may improve past him. The latter has been placed in both starts to date including over track and trip on his seasonal debut and is also preferred to stablemate Clabare. Oriental Heights looks up against it.
