Verdict

Rated 93 having gone close in a Listed race over track and trip in May, YAHSAT should be winning back at this level. Mersea also scored here last month but carries a double penalty and The Platinum Queen is preferred having finished upsides the selection at Ascot last time. Thunder Star made a winning debut when scoring at Haydock and Can To Can is a speedily-bred 75,000gns purchase to note.
