Verdict
STAR OF MASSINI was headed right on the line by Islandmagee in a conditionals' race at Kempton earlier this month where Manshoor jumped poorly and weakened quickly approaching the second-last. Seamus Mullins' charge can go one better here with weighing room senior Andy Thornton taking over the reins. Tornado In Milan is starting to knock on the door and should be winning soon but Sir Fredlot was well beaten at Sandown on Friday while Right Stuff has disappointed over hurdles this winter. Just Beware has been a good servant to connections but appears to find it tough in this grade nowadays.
