Verdict

KINGSHIP SPIRIT should finally be able to break his maiden tag at the fourth attempt against rivals who possess very little on breeding while those with racecourse experience look moderate to say the least. Strongly supported to land what looked a good Newmarket maiden last time from which the fourth has subsequently scored while the fifth ran a big race in pattern company at Doncaster last week, he shows amply early toe in his races and if any of his big race entries are to be fulfilled he should simply coast home against this bunch. With Ann Duffield's string slowly returning to form What A Fella is an obvious place contender while market support for the other Newmarket raider in the field Wunder Strike would make him of some interest. Mythicism is bred to be quick, been by Oasis Dream out of a Mind Games mare but Bryan Smart's yard have been in rather indifferent form of late. David Barron's Premier Lad is another newcomer who should be watched for future reference while Rio Pomba showed some promise on debut but returns following a break. The price will reflect his form but Kingship Spirit is simply too difficult to oppose and he should land it.
