Verdict

Sir Mark Prescott wastes little time in returning LAND OF OZ (NAP) to the fray after the Australia colt produced a career-best effort at the recent Ebor Festival when third behind Hamish and First In Line in the Melrose Handicap. A previous course and distance winner, he reverts to this longer trip and should prove tough to beat. Alfredo, tailed off on his first start after a break, is best watched and Crystal Spirit will need to improve to trouble the selection so Petrastar looks the danger as he's 17lb better off with the selection on their running here last month.
