        Verdict

        VICTORY STAR came good at Beverley when beating the odds-on favourite. This longer trip should suit Mark Johnstons’ charge and the runner-up has subsequently beaten today’s rivals A Legacy and Hang Up. Rushmore won at Goodwood before placing at Wolverhampton while Hashtagmetoo finished third at the same track last time and both are preferred to Liberated Lad.
