Verdict

Three Little Birds has been showing good speed including in the Super Sprint at Newbury but was engaged at Nottingham yesterday. Diamond Express finished fast at Epsom though was entered at Ffos Las last night. HE'S OUR STAR made a very encouraging start at Newbury and will be difficult to beat with normal progress while Swing Out Sister couldn't quite go the pace in the minimum at Nottingham and will be suited by today's extra. Spanish Star will need to find a finishing burst and the two newcomers will probably do better over further in time.
