Verdict

UNION SPIRIT landed a double during the summer and ran his best race since when going close at Doncaster last month. This looks no tougher and a bold bid is expected. Crimewave never recovered from a poor start here last time but is only 2lb higher than when scoring over track and trip earlier in the year while Lady Pendragon has been thereabouts without threatening and is having her second start after wind surgery. Ilalliqa and Thanielle have more scope than most and are worth a second glance dropping down in class.
