Verdict

Starfighter is a son of Sea The Stars and a half-brother to two winners but disappointed when favourite on debut at Haydock. BLONDE WARRIOR easily landed the odds at Yarmouth after a narrow defeat at Newbury, however, and could be useful. He should go close again, despite the penalty, though Jim Crowley having travelled up from Newmarket to partner Karnavaal, who is a son of Dubawi. Aleeka is pitched in against the colts so she has probably be showing something at home and is worth monitoring.
