INDASTAR scored over track and trip in July and was behind Intense Starlet here last week when fading in the closing stages. He should go close if first-time blinkers have the desired effect. Under Approval won under today’s apprentice at Musselburgh earlier and could go well and the handicapper has taken a chance by dropping Ypres 5lb as he was placed at Catterick on his penultimate start. Groundworker has been back on a winning mark for most of the year but looks no nearer getting his head back in front.
