STARSTRIKER had a couple of starts for Wesley Ward last year and was only beaten a nose at Windsor on her debut for a new trainer. She’s clear of the opposition at the weights and can confirm latest running with Make Clear. Alexi Boy is another debuting for a new yard and may improve but the like of Megan Moon and Poseidon Prince are pretty exposed.
