Verdict

Having scored between the flags prior to his reappearance, SPARKLEANDSHINE proved he retains all his ability sporting a first-time tongue tie when finishing runner-up over C&D last month. He should come on for that outing and is taken to gain a first victory over fences. The consistent The Bees Knees heads up the dangers, ahead of Hasankey.
