        Verdict

        Bugle Major was still beaten a long way when second over a longer trip at Kempton and Lenny’s Spirit steps up in trip having landed a double on Turf back in June. STOPNSEARCH had a spin over hurdles last month but went close over today’s distance at Epsom before that and Brett Johnson’s charge is taken to go one better. By Jove was also placed when last seen on the Flat and has switched yards subsequently while Dulcet Spirit makes her handicap debut.
