Verdict

Stars Royale hasn't really progressed since his third at Towcester on Boxing Day. North Germany is another with plenty to prove while Mountain Of Mourne pulled up at Newbury on Friday. GAMAIN has ability but looks as though he saves a bit for himself. If blinkers can encourage him to put his best foot forward, he has a good a chance as any in a modest heat. Zafranagar has been taking on better company but this trip looks beyond his best and For 'N' Against also has his stamina to prove.
