Verdict

This looks wide open with Starfighter arriving on the back of recent placed efforts while My Target won last year’s renewal off a similar mark. Toro Dorado placed again at Lingfield a fortnight ago while Mabre, Giuseppe Cassioli and Fierospeed all step up in distance with a chance. But further progress is expected from PUNTING this year and, with last month’s comeback run at Lingfield under her belt, Richard Hughes’ filly gets the vote returning to her winning trip.
