Verdict

It was a weak race that Parsley's Return won at Lingfield in February and preference is for Komreyev Star, who gets the vote over Sherbourne. The last mentioned has been running with credit in similar company of late and has to be respected, while White Star Magic was outclassed in a seller over course and distance last time but this is more his level. Granary Girl is inconsistent but capable of running into a place and is another to consider along with the lightly raced So Elegant, who remains unexposed. A market move for the reappearing Love Attack would be of interest but the vote goes to Komreyev Star, who showed his best form when switched to the all-weather for the first time at Southwell recently. Provided that the son of Komaite handles the Polytrack, and there is no reason why he would not, Komreyev Star has every chance of providing the in-form yard of Richard Fahey with another winner.
