Verdict

WINNING STORY broke the course record on AW Championships Finals Day at Lingfield and provided he is as effective on turf, he should run well for a yard in form. It will be interesting to see what the market makes of Diamonds Pour Moi on her return to action and she could be a different prospect this year. The tight track is an unknown for Wall Of Fire, so Duretto is preferred to finish in the places despite conceding weight all round.
