Verdict
Show Palace arrives on the back of a landing a double at Redcar and is upped a further 5lb. Black Grass scored over track and trip in April where he beat Fumbo Jumbo. The latter went on to win at Musselburgh but was well beaten off today’s mark on her latest start. Tribesman posted a better effort at Carlisle last time having slipped down the weights since making a winning debut but preference goes to NORTH SPIRIT. The latter was not beaten far on his reappearance, also at Carlisle, despite finishing only fifth and has more scope for improvement than most of these.
