Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Starryfield tops our figures in this field of ten and has barely missed the frame in recent form, a big formline advantage over most of these on ability alone. Beyond The Bar, Indefensible and Masaban all have claims of their own and cluster tightly on figures just behind, giving the race some depth. Starryfield remains our selection on the strength of that superior form, though the tight cluster behind means this only carries modest confidence.
