Verdict

SPRING IS SPRUNG has had a productive season and can take advantage of a draw near the rail and prove too strong for the thriving Eternal Sunshine, who only just got away with it over 5f here last time and is another 4 lb higher now. Recent Haydock scorer Our Absent Friends completes the shortlist.

  2. ETERNAL SUNSHINE
