Burning The Bails made a promising debut at Southwell but failed to show any progress at the same track last time though Sure Spirit finished closer when runner-up at Wolverhampton and is going the right way. But ONIGHT (NAP) was beaten less than a length when third at Kempton on his debut and gets the vote given the runner-up has subsequently won. Timedtoperfection is a likely improver and is preferred to both Glorious Lion and Design.
