        Verdict

        DERRIANA SPIRIT started favourite on her debut at Kelso last month and, though finding Shake The Pose too strong, did enough to suggest she could be winning soon, starting here. She gets the fillies' allowance which can enable her to see off the challenge of Malcolm Jefferson's newcomer Boy Named Sioux, who has a stayers' pedigree and is one to note when eventually sent jumping. Drumnagreagh looks as though he needs a thorough test of stamina which he may get here while Sunny Destination, who showed real potential when runner-up here a year ago, will have needed last month's belated reappearance at Carlisle.
