Verdict

HOOKED ON WEALTH (8) has proven quite the tease for punters but has found another suitable race. Possesses a sharp turn of foot on his day, so if Murtagh can get him in the clear with ample time he will take plenty of stopping. SIR MYKA (1) carries the class edge dropping back from the LR Lightning Stakes that was taken out dominantly by Cavalry Girl. Gets an important 7lbs claim and is drawn cosy. Can play a major role second-up. Impossible to knock the form of JUSTACCLAIM (3) who shoots for the hat-trick here , though he will have to raise the bar again. CORK HARBOUR (9) is often overlooked by the market but boasts peaks that measure up. Drawn nicely and gets in well with the 4lbs claim. Underestimate at your own peril. DAISYDOO (7) has been okay in her two runs back, running headfirst into the red-hot Real Deluxe. Should be hitting her straps now fourth-up and is right in the mix.
