        Verdict

        A couple of these stand out. GREEK FLAME improved to win at Wolverhampton last month and is penalised but the form has worked out well. James Fanshawe’s filly beat three subsequent winners on that occasion and any further progress can see her get the better of Figures. The latter made a promising debut when runner-up at Wolverhampton and looks the main danger though Tiger Spirit has placed in an all-weather bumper here and is preferred to Mr McCall and Tiger Jet.
