Verdict

GOLDEN SPUN looks set to take advantage of a slide down the weights. Placed at Redcar recently, he drops down a grade with an apprentice's allowance further helping his cause. American Hustle notched-up a run of placed efforts last year though on faster ground while Tellovoi last won on the Turf in 2013. Totally Magic beat Mrs Biggs only a neck here in September but the latter is still looking for her first win in a handicap while Zed Candy Girl is 4lb higher than her win at Kempton in February.
