Verdict

Runaholic has been beaten a head at Thirsk on his last couple of starts but a couple of these may improve past him. Blue Universe finished strongly at Kempton having lost his position turning for home but CONNEMARA COAST finished behind a subsequent winner when third at Ascot on his debut and Richard Hughes’ colt may prove the one to side with. Prince of Zenda is related to a host of winners and is a newcomer to note.
