Placed in all three starts last year, YANTARNI had been gelded before making a winning reappearance on the July course here last month. He looks worth sticking with given today’s better ground will suit. Sunrise Valley was still well beaten when third at Salisbury back in June while Sly Madam, Tipperary Moon and Ashky all missed out on hat-tricks last time, though the former faced a tough task in Listed company. The latter beat Uzincso earlier while Zameka steps up in trip for his in-form yard.
