In depth
Verdict
Bumper and hurdles winner Heartbreaker debuts on the Flat and can get involved with Oisin Murphy on board. But SAMARA STAR is fancied to defy a penalty as she made a winning debut when scoring over track and trip last month and there looks plenty more to come. Iconique improved to finish third over a shorter trip at Yarmouth while the newcomers Titanium Moon and Magical Mist are both bred for middle-distances.
