Verdict

Not much to go on in the opener but as Neville Callaghan has chosen to introduce the well-bred Catch A Star here instead of options later in the week, the daughter of Giant's Causeway is given slender preference over Aberdovey and Beautiful Mover, who are both expensive purchases that will be expected to be paying their way very shortly. The Nick Littmoden team are doing well with their juveniles this terms and, as such, Moon Mischief also has to be given a solid mention as one that is worth monitoring for signs of support as well. However, with three intended runners in a race of this nature, it can be safely assumed that Callaghan is keen on lifting this prize and, as neither Jay or Bibi Helen make as much appeal on pedigree, Catch a Star is selected today. It is a little early to be judging how prolific a source of winners Giant's Causeway will become in time, but as Catch A Star is only the second of his progeny to visit a racecourse, this 180,000gns purchase is given the benefit of the doubt today. Her claims are boosted by the fact that Johnny Murtagh will be doing the steering and she is worth keeping tabs on whatever happens this afternoon.
