Shane Donohoe admits Star Links faces his toughest test to date in the Ladbrokes Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton on Saturday.

The Irish raider has won eight times from 16 starts at Dunstall Park, including on his most recent outing a month ago.

Donohoe said: "It's a big step up for him, but he's earned the right to go there. He's going to have to be at the top of his game and he's a funny old boy, so it will depend which side of the bed he gets out of on Saturday morning.

"It's a tough ask, but he does love Wolverhampton. The draw (stall 11) isn't ideal, so if he can run a nice race we'll be delighted. Whatever happens on Saturday, he owes us nothing."
