Verdict
SCOOPS AHOY was predictably outclassed in the Windsor Castle Stakes and this return to more realistic company should suit the Hamilton maiden winner. Karl Burke won this race last year so expect to see the market being sweet about the claims of Ripon victor Biloxi Boy. Arc Shadowfax was a ready winner at Redcar and went into many notebooks as a consequence. Specific Times is yet to win a race but a mark of 67 does not appear onerous. Onigiri prevailed at Redcar on her debut and the second was to give that form a boost when securing a contest at Ripon earlier this week. Classy Clarets has been gelded since we last saw him at Hamilton Park.
