Verdict

Indomitable Spirit bids for a treble off only a 2lb higher mark returning to a shorter trip and Charlies Mate is usually thereabouts regardless of distance, though his best efforts to date have come over further. Titan Goddess posted her best effort so far when narrowly beaten over track and trip a month ago but she has gone straight back up in the weights for that and ROYAL RETTIE (NAP) is preferred. Chris Wall's filly made up plenty of late ground when staying on for fifth over 7f at Kempton on her handicap bow and this extra furlong should suit.
