    Verdict

    Sparkalex is back on Turf for the first time since beating Gisele's Angel a head over 5f here in July. Cale Lane started favourite at Nottingham last month after scoring at Doncaster but didn’t run up to expectations. Charming Guest has paid her way this season with two wins at Bath and one at Epsom but she has a penalty to carry. PEGGIE SUE (NAP) also has 6lb extra after following up her Wolverhampton win with victory at Sandown on Friday but she’s improving at a rate of knots and a hat-trick beckons. After only three starts, there should be more to come from Indian Tygress and Bella Ferrari won at Yarmouth last month and would enter calculations if there was any rain.
