Verdict

Juneau has already turned into one of her stable's handicappers who seem out and about every week and thrive on doing so. She now faces the starter for the thirteenth time since March but arrives in the very best of form, having landed three of her last four starts and having carried over 10-0st to victory the last twice. It's really tempting to go along with the Johnston inmate again but RED STRIKER is the choice despite having yet to reach the frame. The subject of strong market support on all three starts for Sir Micheal Stoute, he has displayed definite potential and now receives upwards of nearly a stone and more from all rivals. The three older horses can all have a case argued for their chance and there's very little between on the book with Cote D'Azur suggested as best of them.
