Racing Post verdict
Third-partyClementines Star heads this Chepstow seven-furlong Class 5 on good-to-firm ground, rated narrowly ahead of Sydney Rock and a few pounds clear of Espona Bay, and that edge in quality looks meaningful at this level. Sydney Rock and Espona Bay represent the chief dangers, with Sup Of Red worth keeping onside should the principals disappoint. The selection's superiority over the bulk of the field is clear, and while the margin over the immediate rivals is slim, Clementines Star is taken to confirm that advantage on the day. **Clementines Star** is our selection.
