Verdict

Miracle Play has every chance having finished fourth in a higher grade race at Catterick on his latest start, but it could pay to stick with CASTLEMORRIS KING. He returned from a three-month absence with a victory over C&D and can follow up on only his fourth start of the year. Srimenanti went close on soft ground at Hamilton last time and also has scope for improvement on her all-weather debut, while Valley Tiger may do better stepping up in distance.
