        chased leaders, edged left over 1f out, soon ridden, weakened inside final furlong

        In depth

        Verdict

        SMOKEY (NAP) has held her form well since landing an earlier hat-trick having gone close in both subsequent starts. She finished in front of Indian Pursuit here last time and You're Cool at Wolverhampton before that and looks worth another chance. Spurofthemoment could be in the mix back on the all-weather today and is preferred of the remainder unless The Sunday Club improves now handicapping for the first time.
