Verdict

Sydney Star, Red Spell and Tranquil Sky are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Tranquil Sky. The selection ran well last time at Pontefract when a close second behind Penrith. That was a decent performance and came on the back of a terrific effort at Goodwood when he got to within two lengths of Gatwick. Sydney Star rates the main danger as she is still relatively unexposed and she ran well when defeating Noora at Chester. She has plenty of scope for improvement and it would be no surprise to see her go well. Red Spell is another that could be potentially quite useful as he showed a good attitude to beat a competitive field at Newmarket last time. He could yet run in the Britannia and his trainer Richard Hannon still thinks he could be open to plenty of improvement, so he has to be on the shortlist. Secretary General from the Paul Cole yard is the other worth a second look in the market, but for the winner we return to Tranquil Sky.
