STAR STUDIED took a step forward from his debut success to score in comfortable style under a penalty at Kempton in March of last year. James Tate's colt now makes his handicap debut on his comeback and as long as he can transfer his form to turf, he could prove very hard to beat. Quiet Resolve finished a close-up third at Hamilton on his latest outing and is likely to be thereabouts off an unchanged mark. Rhythm Master is next best. |
Although your eye is inextricably drawn to Star Studied, who is unbeaten and looked potentially smart when winning both starts last season in maiden and novice company, this colt steps into Class 3 company on handicap debut off a very lengthy absence. And while he may well confirm that promise on return, it just might possibly pay to look elsewhere. RHYTHM MASTER looks a viable option. A Group-class performer in his early days, the veteran is a solid operator in Class 2/3 handicaps, acts on the ground and will give his younger pretender his stiffest task to date. Barley acts on the ground, suits the trip and has shown enough to suggest he can put it up to the principals. |
