1 1 3YO plus 15:30 Haydock 24 May 2025 Betfred Temple Stakes £70,888 5f Good to firm-good in places null Even Rumstar produced a career-best performance when defeating She's Quality in the Palace House at Newmarket and Jonathan Portman's charge may have more in the tank, but it is AMERICAN AFFAIR who gets the vote. The five-year-old has been on an upward trajectory for some time now - his recent York triumph providing yet more evidence of that - and a first foray into Group company looks well worth exploring. Starlust struggled in the Hong Kong Sprint when last seen, but the Breeders' Cup hero is likely to be a real threat in these calmer waters. Starlust is the sole Grade 1 winner in the field, having won the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Del Mar last season, and is a major player on seasonal return back over his ideal trip. The obvious concern is the colt carries a penalty for that win, and with Group 1 prizes to contend for at Royal Ascot and at the July meeting at Newmarket, this race may just be needed with those engagements to come. RUMSTAR travelled and then ran on strongly when taking the Palace House Stakes (Group 3) at Newmarket last time out, with three of today's rivals behind him. The 5yo looked an improved performer on the Rowley Mile and can underline that impression here. Faster ground should not be an issue as he is a previous winner on good to firm and handled it in the 2023 Commonwealth Cup (Group 1). Mgheera posted an improved effort when winning Prix de Saint-Georges (Group 3) at Longchamp last time out on her first start for the yard. She's yet to race on good to firm but was a Listed winner on good ground. American Affair is an interesting contender on this Group debut. The 5yo won with a bit in hand in a Class 2 handicap at York last week, looks progressive and his trainer believes he's Group class. That's feasible, and while it may just take a couple of runs in this grade to confirm that impression, it would be no surprise to see another improved performance.
