Has won at this track; useful at this level; finished fourth but only beaten just over 2l (Kenilworth) in April in a Grade 3; drop in class is a positive and in the mix.

All four career wins over this trip; eighth of 16 in the Grade 1 Golden Horse Sprint (Scottsville) four months ago; needs considering if able to find the same level as when recording last success and lower class is a plus.

Got the job done in a Listed race by half a length at Fairview in June; on target three times in her last five outings; a previous winner here; only female in race; dropping in class but looks opposable.

Verdict

Dance Variety is respected, and Ziyasha is one that needs plenty of respect. However, SEEKING THE STARS is the pick of these. He has a fine record at this trip and has proved he can get his head in front.
