Almaty Star
Better on AW than turf but took advantage of a good opportunity at Yarmouth in April (5f, good); hit with an 8lb rise for that, bringing his turf and AW marks into line; blew the start back at Yarmouth last month but the stewards deemed him a non-runner due to having his head turned as the stalls opened; risky on the back of that and there are other pace influences to contend with today.

From the connections
“Almaty Star has been a bit of a revelation since dropping him back to five and using those forcing tactics. Ray has given him quite an intelligent ride. He stacked them up and got them all caught on heels - Robert Cowell, trainer, speaking to Racing TV.”
