      Verdict

      There was cut in the ground when Swift Approval won at Newbury and he’s raised in class for this. But several drop down a grade including Leicester runner-up Graphite Storm and Turn 'n Twirl. The latter may not have seen out the mile trip at Chelmsford last time and could figure but THAT IS THE SPIRIT also faced a much tougher task at Chelmsford last month. He’d won at the same track on his debut for Mick Appleby before that and gets another chance back on Turf given he was scoring off higher marks in Ireland last year. Maksab is struggling for form and Chloellie has it all to do at this level.
