Verdict

Diamond Union has hinted at ability and has a talented conditional on board but it remains to be seen if Rocket Spirit can build on a second here last month. FLIDAIS was behind that day but had run much better at the track earlier on quicker ground so gets another chance. Summer Gale has placed in a bumper but has had a break since running on the Flat in the autumn and Zaghraf has switched stables.
