Verdict

Quite Smart went close over 7f at Chelmsford last week when ahead of Ixelles Diamond and attempts today's longer distance for the first time but PERFECT FIT was beaten less than a length when third over track and trip last month. He didn't take to the Fibresand at Southwell last time but Tony Coyle's charge is worth another chance back on this surface. Free Running was placed in a Thirsk maiden back in August and makes more appeal than Cascading Stars now handicapping for the first time.
