Yanifer went close at Chester with Royal Musketeer well beaten while Global Spirit won at Pontefract in August and landed this race back in 2020. But cheekpieces have worked the oracle for ASTRAL BEAU and she completed a double at Newmarket with her latest success. Pam Sly’s filly is taken to defy a 2lb rise and confirm latest running with Guess. Recent Chester winner Devilwala and Musselburgh runner-up Muntadab are both upped in class.
