Verdict

HIDDEN SPARK's strike rate is hard compelling and she went off the boil towards the end of last year. However, she posted several creditable efforts in defeat during the summer, including when third of 17 over this C&D in June, and resumes on an attractive mark. C&D winner Cracking Name will be a threat if able to bounce back, while Solar System and Overtake both make each-way appeal.
