    Verdict

    This looks tricky with a couple of similar types in contention and no guaranteed pace. Crystal Moonlight made a winning return when scoring easily over 1m2f at Doncaster while SNOW WIND won over the same trip at Ripon by eight lengths. The latter gets the speculative vote with the Haggas yard firing-in the winners. The Coolmore-owned With Good Grace made only a modest start at Wolverhampton but looks likely to improve for this extra distance while Leannes Lad will pick-up prize money for finishing last.
