Not so competitive as the numbers suggest, and GASTARA rates a very solid option on the back of his good Newbury fifth which is proving excellent form. Handicap-debutant Macfin could be the one to give him most to do, with in-form No Quarter Asked and handily-weighted Cawthorne Lad two others who are worth a second look.
