Verdict

BAYSTON HILL (NAP) is upped 3lb for winning at Lingfield but this looks less competitive. He’s a course and distance winner and Mark Usher’s charge gets the vote. Spiritual Man also scored on the all-weather recently but that was his first success in 17 attempts and See The Sea makes more appeal with last week’s reappearance under her belt given she scored over track and trip last summer. Love And Be Loved notched up a hat-trick over a mile last season and can figure if lasting home while Edge may do better back on fast ground today.
