In depth

Verdict

Mystery Star, St Jean Cap Ferrat and Indian Days make the shortlist here, with Indian Days the selection. Winner of a Wolverhampton maiden in November, Mystery Star ran very well at York last time in a valuable handicap, finishing third behind the classy winner, Collection. He re-opposes the second, Indian Days on a neck better terms, and can go well. After some consistently promising runs, St Jean Cap Ferrat lost his maiden tag at Nottingham. That win came on a softer surface however, and the balance of his form does not look as strong as one or two of his rivals and he is taken on. Indian Days is a classy type, having taken a Sandown maiden as a juvenile, he was just touched off at Haydock on his re-appearance, and then found only the well handicapped Collection too good at York. Indian Days can make it third time lucky for the season.
