Verdict

Rated 89, CRYSTAL PEGASUS may improve for this longer trip after failing to land the odds when second at Pontefract. Sir Michael Stoute’s colt gets vote. Brilliant Light showed ability when runner-up at Newbury to the potentially smart Darain and is preferred to stablemate Raased while Yorktown is a half-brother to four winners including the useful Mordin and is preferred to Well Planted and Byron Hill of the other newcomers.
