The manner in which SPRING PRAISE bounded to victory on his debut for a new trainer created a very favourable impression and, given this doesn't look to be any stronger, Garry Moore's three-year-old stands out as the most appealing option in a very modest handicap. Lady Of Yorkand Tilsworth Lukey are old rivals that are capable of making this a good test. The former is the more attractively weighted and gets the nod as the biggest threat. Small investments in Sharp Operator or Gift From God also carry potential to be rewarding for each-way punters to avail themselves to a share of the spoils.
