Verdict

Best Trition ran below par last time but it was testing going when he scored over track and trip before that, though he’s 5lb higher today. FAWSLEY SPIRIT has also won on heavy ground and, having found only one too good on a faster surface at Plumpton last time, he gets the nod in this. Valleres has tumbled down the weights but was still well beaten when third at Chepstow while Icone D'aubrelle steps up in trip after a modest chasing debut here but has more scope than most.
