Verdict

The lightly-raced and unexposed Star Kissed is likely to be popular but this is a very different ask to her heavy ground success in a 1m4f maiden in April. The Very Man and MELLOW MAGIC provide Jessica Harrington with a strong hand and it is the latter who makes most appeal, despite jockey bookings suggesting he's the second string. He disappointed last time but his form with Andrew Balding last season was consistent enough. Zanndabad is open to progression over staying trips on the Flat and also makes the shortlistalong with Kingswear and Black Hawk Eagle.
