Party Palace is given the vote ahead of Right Option and Stars Above. Party Palace appeared to improve for the step up in trip and while he is not a worldbeater by any stretch of the imagination, any Jamie Osborne runners at this level are offered due deference. Right Option is still a maiden after many starts. On BHB ratings, he is much the best but getting his head infront has not been easy. Stars Above was favourite for a nursery over course-and-distance but is worse off at today's weights and is arguably best watched. Flashing Feet is quickly cast in this grade following a below par debut. Darley Stud cast off, Pret A Porter is watched in the market. A poor race in which Party Palace appears to hold the best prospects.
