In depth

Verdict

Mey Blossom had Art Dzeko, who runs in the previous race, back in third when scoring at Beverley last time and this looks less competitive despite a 4lb rise in the weights. COMPTON SPIRIT also faced a stiffer task at Chepstow on her reappearance but she ran well before fading in the closing stages behind Go Nani Go. Brian Baugh's mare should be sharper today and gets the tentative vote to come good in this. Spykes Bay is on a tempting mark if back to his best while Flighty Clarets went close over 6f last time and Salvatore Fury made the frame in a seller at Beverley.
