Ed Walker trained Starman 9-2 tipped by fromthehorsesmouth.info landed the Group 1 Darley July Cup Stakes over 6 furlongs ridden by Tom Marquand at Newmarket on Saturday.
“They had me in a bit of trouble at the three-pole going downhill. As these top-class sprinters were quickening it all got a bit tight and he was inexperienced compared to a lot of these,” said Marquand.
