      In depth

      Verdict

      Chinese Spirit got going too late at Carlisle on Monday but Bankawi finished second at that meeting and is in good heart, though looks closely matched with Iron Sheriff on the form book. COSA SARA finished ahead of Ayr Empress and Chinese Spirit at Hamilton two runs ago and was unlucky not to recoup losses at the same track last Saturday. Jim Goldie’s filly is still improving so gets another chance.
