Verdict

A modest bumper to end the card but it lacks much depth and it’s hard to see anything disrupting the head-to-head that’s likely to develop between the two Wetherby foes Meep Meep Mag and INNISFREE SPIRIT. The former comes from a stable that do well with their bumper runners but she did have the advantage of experience last time and her trainer, David Pipe has seen his last two bumper runners here beaten at 5-4 and 6-4, neither making the frame. Innisfree Spirit does have some ground to make up on her old rival but that was her first race and with Brian Hughes taking over on board she could well reverse the form. Newcomer Akilaya and Leeswood Lily are expected to battle for the minor berth.
  1. Innisfree Spirit
  2. Meep Meep Mag
