        Verdict

        Puffin Island only won a classified race over 7f at Wolverhampton last time while Beija Flor finished runner-up over 1m2f here a fortnight ago. Eyes has been threatening a return to winning ways with placed efforts at Lingfield while Don't Tell Dj has been creeping closer over 7f. But several make their handicap debuts in this with a chance taken on SPIRITUOSO coming out best of them with headgear applied and an apprentice taking 5lb off her back.
