      Verdict

      Rated 82, STARSHIBA sets a decent standard having gone close in a handicap at Kempton and David Elsworth’s charge gets the vote back in novice company having been gelded subsequently. Perfect Sunset and Born To Destroy have something to find with the selection on these terms while Going Places has been gelded and switched yards since finishing second of only three runners at Kempton early last year. Craved is related to prolific Group 1 winner and stablemate One Master and is a newcomer to note for the Haggas yard.
