Verdict
Robert Whearty's claim can help CRYSTAL DAWN to a well-deserved victory after a couple of very good runs from this mark. Gavin Cromwell's mare hasn't won since 2020 but gets a chance to put matters right here. Stellar Spirit is an obvious threat having scored over 6f here in November and staying on strongly over that trip a month ago. Acquiescent was well beaten in that latter event but had Stellar Spirit behind over this trip on her previous start. Well Suited was in double-winning form at this time last year and has run better than form figures suggest in his last two.
