Verdict
It could pay to stick with SPANISH STAR in this given he beat Dora Penny and Indian Creak with Full Authority further behind when successful over track and trip recently. Twilight Heir won a lower grade sprint at Windsor last time while Global Esteem drops down in trip after placing over a mile. Bernardo O'Reilly placed in the Silver Cup at Ayr while Gisburn ran well in a tougher sprint at York and Punchbowl Flyer won this back in 2020.
