Verdict

MASTER SPEAKER has a very poor strike-rate for such a talented sprinter but a change of scenery looks to have done the trick as he was having his first start for Ado McGuinness when coming with a late run to snatch the spoils last month. Hopefully he's still in the same mood and can go in again. He holds Captain Dion on that run but Togoville won this last year and has a superb record on the track. He was only caught in the dying strides by Jon Ess over 7f two weeks ago and will make a bold bid to go one better. Kindly looks best of Jonny Levins' pair as the lightly-raced filly, a dual all-weather winner for Simon Crisford, was having her first start for the yard when running well over the minimum last month. Art Nouvelle was sent to Lingfield to lose her maiden tag in December and this looks a bit tougher
