Verdict

MOONSPIRIT is bred to be useful and showed clear signs of ability when fourth in a 6-runner novice won by a potentially smart Godolphin colt on debut at Newmarket. She will be more street-wise this time and gets the nod ahead of another likely improver in Zaraza, who was possibly unsuited by the slow ground at Thirsk and is well worth another chance to build on his debut promise. Sealine should be in the mix, too, while cases can also be made for Dartman and Lunatick.

  1. MOONSPIRIT
  2. ZARAZA (GER)
  3. SEALINE (IRE)
