In depth

Verdict

Stay Classy makes her handicap debut having won over a mile at Windsor recently and can figure. But GUNFORHIRE found only one too good at Newmarket when handicapping for the first time and the Hannon colt looks to have every chance of going one better given he finished well ahead of the re-opposing Even Keel with Hard Taskmaster further behind. The Last Party was set a tough task in Class 2 company last time and is preferred to another novice race winner in Jaayiz while Nayslayer has a bit to prove over today’s trip.
