    I’m on Mgheera for this at a decent price having read Ed Walker’s write-up in the Weekender, and had only just topped up after today’s Temple stakes to hear him apparently desperate to persuade the new owners to allow him to run her in the Nunthorpe before being shipped off to Oz?!?
    Having just finished spitting all the feathers out I read a reported interview on AtTheRaces that he was hoping to run her here as well, so not sure what to believe?
    I think if she does go here, especially with Buick aboard, she stands a decent chance, but maybe that’s just the wallet talking… 🙏

    Starlust 14/1

    Has run plenty of times over the past couple of years and my overriding take out would be he is best over a stiff 5f or an extremely quick run 5f. He’s versatile regard track position. This horse has never won when having a break of over a month and is 6 out of 13 when running within a month of a last run, 5/10 when excluding International races. Good news here is he has run at Haydock with Royal Ascot coming within 30 days of that.
    His Ascot record is 0/2 but both times that was over 6f … The group 1 Commonwealth cup where he breaks fast and if you pause it with just under a furlong to go he is right up there with Inisherin before fading.. Similar to his previous Ascot run. His run in the Nunthorpe where he ran up with the pace before staying on again would suggest Ascot won’t be an issue over the stiff 5f and its the distance rather than the track for his down the field positions imo
