Verdict
FLYING MOON is 4-14 on the track having completed a recent double here. He's capable of winning again from this mark and a hat-trick beckons. Tele Red is 0-12 and has gone back up in the ratings despite being beaten while Victory Star, who completed a fast-ground double in May, ran poorly when last at Hamilton last month. The selection's stable companion Royal Countess was less than a length behind him here in May but was engaged in yesterday's 4.37 while Sophiesticate's best run came on ground with give.
