Verdict
STARLIT CANTATA has recorded both wins to date over track and trip including her latest start. There should be more to come from her this year and she is taken to confirm latest running with third-placed Young Dottie and fifth Lady Lunchalot. The latter is closely matched with Apache Glory on her win here in February while today's distance seems to stretch Toymaker's stamina to the limit and he has yet to score over further than a mile. Goal returns to the Flat but remains 4lb higher than his win at Dundalk back in 2013.
