Verdict

Midtech Star and Ardamir have both been running well on the AW of late and have to be of interest, particularly the former, whose significantly lower turf rating makes him a potential blot on the handicap. However, preference is for ICEBUSTER who has also been hinting at better things to come on the AW of late and who has won on this course from a higher mark in the past.
