SPARKLING SPIRIT shaped well in blinkers at Kempton last time and could be the way to go if the headgear continues to have a positive effect. Van Zant was only nudged up 1 lb for his recent Wolverhampton success so should be very competitive again. Greenwich is an interesting handicap newcomer for shrewd connections.
