Race Tip

IKIGAI STAR (4) hasn't won for a while however is being given a chance by the assessor after finishing third at Fontwell Park last month. Back up in trip and holds possibilities. ICE JET (7) remains a maiden under both codes. Managed to take a major step forward when finishing second on handicap debut at Wetherby in March. Will need to be at that level again. Deserves respect racing for this stable. MAN OF THE SEA (1) remains well exposed and will be fit after a spin on the flat at Bath four weeks ago. One to take very seriously. MIDNIGHT PASS (3) failed to improve at Taunton three weeks ago. Worth giving another chance.
