Urban Spirit finished runner-up at Musselburgh back in July but remains 7lb higher than when recording his only win in 23 starts. Put The Law On You went close over a longer trip before beaten five lengths over 1m6f at Carlisle while Aussie Breeze was placed over 1m4f at Chepstow earlier but was well beaten at Wolverhampton last time. NATALEENA never figured over a shorter trip here recently but Ben Haslam’s unexposed filly just missed out over course and distance before that and she gets another chance on that form.
