Verdict

ISLAND STAR is thriving under the expert tutelage of Roger Varian and can bag a second success on the back of his fast-finishing Sandown third last time. Never Ending looks to have better days ahead of him and is feared most now going handicapping. In-form pair Mighty River and Feud complete the shortlist.
