Verdict
SPEREDEK appears to be going from strength-to-strength and is worthy of a further step up in grade. He’s gone up another 7lb since making all at Sandown but a hat-trick probably still beckons against largely out-of-form rivals. Grey Gold has been very disappointing in his last two while Red Spinner has been racing over further lately. De Faoithesdream is still 6lb higher than when scoring at Ayr last April but looks more of a danger than Workbench, who will do better when the ground dries out a little.
