Verdict

He's Amazing beat Allegiant at Windsor in April and there was clearly something amiss with Ed Walker’s charge at that track next time. Mandarin kept on behind West End Charmer at Doncaster while Badenscoth has won three of his last four but they’ve all been on the all-weather and is lesser company. HERCULEAN hasn’t raced since October and was gelded the following month but he’s had a very light career to date so there is likely more to come. Secret Art, C Note and Tralee Hills make some appeal for each-way purposes.
