Verdict
Stay Smart has shown easily his best form to date on Tapeta, scoring at Newcastle and Wolverhampton. Black Sparrow has a course and distance victory to her credit and is back on the same mark but One Day is making her all-weather debut after switching yards. ONALEDGE won a Yarmouth nursery and wasn't beaten far in a similar race at Chelmsford in November. She may just have needed the run at Wolverhampton next time and can get back to winning ways.
