Tomorrow, May 8, 2025FlatClass 41m4f

There's a good chance that WAY OF STARS would've made a winning reappearance on his handicap debut at Southwell, but for encountering traffic problems at a crucial stage. Consequently, he is potentially well treated off this 1 lb higher mark and gets the nod ahead of another promising type from a major yard in Lady Vivian. The Hugo Palmer-trained duo both need a second look, particularly My Kinda Ghaiy, while Kuredu King and Motawaared are also of interest in a competitive heat.

    Verdict
    Shaped well sole 2-y-o start and improved when chasing home a Godolphin hotpot on return at Southwell (11f) in February. Duly landed the odds when outpointing a subsequent winner upped to this trip at the same course the following month and she brings obvious potential to this handicap/turf debut.

    Verdict
    Failed to build on highly promising Goodwood debut near-miss in 2 subsequent starts as a juvenile (gelded after final 2-y-o start) but back on track when third of 7 upped to 1½m on return/handicap bow at Southwell last month. Arguably unlucky not to win that day and he remains open to improvement.

    Verdict
    Stepped up on debut effort when second at Southwell in March and subsequent odds-on failure switched to turf at Musselburgh (1m, good) wasn't the end of the world. Step forward anticipated now that he's faced with a siffer test on this handicap bow and merits respect for last year's winning yard.

    Verdict
    Fetched 300,000 gns as a yearling and, having failed to fire in a couple of runs over 7f/1m at 2 yrs (gelded after), he took a step forward when fourth in a 10-runner Doncaster maiden (10.2f, good) in March. This stiffer test looks a plus now handicapping in first-time cheekpieces.

    Verdict
    Encouraging start to career when fourth in a 9-runner maiden at Southwell (1m) in February, doing best work at the finish. Has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts (gelded since latest) but it's not hard to envisage improvement now upped in trip for this handicap bow. Cheekpieces added.

    Verdict
    Dual 7f winner on AW for Michael Bell and landed a third success on debut for this yard (also over 7f) in October. Left uninspiring reappearance effort behind when runner-up in a 9f Musselburgh handicap but stamina for this trip has to be taken on trust.

    Verdict
    Chelmsford novice winner in January and made it 2-3 in handicaps when making all in a 5-runner affair at Southwell (11f) last month. Allowed to call the shots on the front end that day and while she may not necessarily face competition for the lead here either, this is a tougher assignment up 4 lb.

    Verdict
    Left debut effort well behind when second to subsequent listed winner American Gal in 1m Kempton novice during the autumn. Rather disappointing at Wolverhampton on final 2-y-o start but, like stablemate My Kinda Ghaiy, she is open to improvement now upped in trip for this handicap debut.
