Verdict

CITY SPIRIT showed improved form in a first-time hood to see off a pair of previous winners at Windsor 22 days ago, despite not looking the finished article, so a 4 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent the follow up. Genesius is on a good mark and respected in a first-time visor, as is Eloso, who carries a 5 lb penalty for his recent win at Brighton.
