Broadspear has been a beaten favourite in six of his seven career starts. He has been an odds-on failure the last twice and is taken on with FOLLOW THE STAR, who has had a few opportunities herself but was only beaten a neck at Chester last month. Vidhaata has been improving with experience on the all-weather and Morning Post also has scope but Whispering Song may benefit from a step up in trip.
