In depth
Verdict
Catch My Breath is partnered by a leading amateur having won over track and trip in August while Brodie Hampson rode Luna Magic when the latter scored at Beverley in the same month. Spirit Of Sarwan finished in front of both Zealous and Star Of Valour when successful over today’s trip at Hamilton and is preferred to Serena Brotherton’s mount Zeshov but FIRLINFEU was beaten only a neck at Hamilton last time and gets the vote to go one better on his debut for Jim Goldie’s yard.
