      Verdict

      KIT MARLOWE returns from a short break having won over 7f at Newcastle in June. He should go close on his handicap debut and is preferred to Faradays Spark, The Love Doctor and Joe's Spirit, who have all placed in handicaps though the latter pair disappointed on their respective latest starts when both were sent off joint-favourites. Coastal Drive was runner-up over today’s trip at Salisbury and makes more appeal than Sardenya as both go handicapping for the first time.
