Verdict

A gelding operation has seen NIGHT RAIDER start to fulfil his immense early promise, supplementing his Newmarket win despite a slow start forcing a change of tactics in the Temple Stakes and he could be the answer. Australian representatives have enjoyed plenty of success over the years and Overpass (providing he copes with a bare 5f) has the form to be a major factor, while the re-application of headgear will also surely see the classy Asfoora in a much better light.

  1. NIGHT RAIDER (IRE)
