Irish Girls Spirit won a division of this in 2013 and also won last year's renewal. But she may have come good a race too soon this season as she is penalised for winning at Hamilton last week and GAELIC WIZARD is preferred. He also carries 6lb extra for scoring on the same card at Hamilton but beat Busy Bimbo, Ya Boy Sir and Jumbo Steps when returning a clear winner and can go in again. Little Belter has something to find with Irish Girls Spirit and Saxonette is 4lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in August.
