Verdict

Another very trappy sprint handicap but Roger Teal's SPIRIT OF MAY was very progressive towards the end of last term and if picking up in the same vein may be up to defying a rise in his mark. Betsy Trotter also had a good time of things last year and is respected, as too is the ex-Irish Highland Dress who won at Southwell for his current yard in March. Wentworth Falls deserves to get his head in front after a number of good runs in recent years without success, and it will be interesting to see how Danzan fairs on his first start for new connections.
  1. Spirit Of May
  2. Highland Dress
  3. Wentworth Falls
