Salisbury Race 3

British Stallion Studs Ebf Stonehenge Stakes (Listed)

Prize Money: $101,476

The unbeaten QUEST FOR STARS (4) hasn't been visually exciting with either victory to date but looks to hold plenty of ability winning under a penalty at Sandown Park two weeks ago. Open to any amount of improvement now stepping up to 1600m. RAFE'S DA MAN (5) managed to take a big step forward to win a nice maiden at Glorious Goodwood two weeks ago and shapes as if this trip will suit better. Major player. SCOMMESSA SICURA (8) raced four times before getting off the mark however has encountered some smart rivals. Interesting. DANDYMAN DAN (1) brings plenty of experience and is of note debuting for these connections.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len at Kempton Park All Weather June 29 over 1200m defeating Fully Stocked carrying 60.5kg at $12. Second-up 5th of 10 at Ascot in the LR Pat Eddery Stakes on July 24 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Alfred Wallace carrying 59.5kg at $41. Sure to be thereabouts.

Puts an unbeaten record on the line. On debut, won by a nose at Doncaster July 9 over 1400m defeating Amir Lehbab carrying 60.5kg at $19. Last start won by 0.5 len at Sandown Park July 29 over 1400m defeating Grove Street carrying 62kg at $3.30. Going well and looks hard to beat again here.

Raced twice to date. At long odds at debut, 3rd of 7 at Newmarket (July) on July 11 over 1400m, 3 len behind Haffner carrying 58kg at $26. Last start favourite; won by 1.0 len at Chester July 25 over 1400m defeating Storm Blade carrying 60.5kg at $1.70. Looks a strong top-three prospect.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 34-day let-up. At the latest run won by 1.0 len at Newmarket (July) July 9 over 1400m defeating Tall Trees with 58kg at $3. The run before that tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 9 at Newmarket (July) on June 19 over 1400m, neck behind Musical Times carrying 58kg at $2.50. Tough to beat on latest and can measure up again.
