      Verdict

      SOARING SPIRITS winning run came to an end here last time but he was beaten only a short-head. Dean Ivory’s charge had rattled-up a hat-trick in June including a course and distance success and is just preferred to Wordismybond. The latter won at Lingfield last month and finished ahead of Pick A Little when placed here subsequently while With Approval was less than a length in front of Bingo George when scoring over track and trip a fortnight ago. Sarangoo has the beating of First Experience and is also back on a winning mark.
