Verdict

PAS DE CHEVAL (5) broke through for his maiden win over 6 ½f at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and a bold showing is expected. MIGHTY BEAT (4) comes here following a win over 7f at this track five weeks ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths. Nicely placed and expected to go well. MASTER PLAN (6) is a five-start maiden who was in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second at the latest appearance over 7f at this track. Well placed to run a big race. BREEDO KING STAR (9) was beaten 5 lengths into second at this track two starts ago then finished 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at this track. Can feature with the right run.
