    Verdict

    Froissee, World Spirit and Fragrancy are the three to focus on here, with Froissee taken to continue his winning form. Fragrancy won well on her debut, a not unexpected success, and has run well twice since. She didnt quite get home over nine furlongs last time, and will appreciate this furlong shorter trip. The form of her last race at Goodwood has worked out quite well, and she is respected although her yard has had a quiet week in terms of winners. World Spirit has won twice in five starts, and following a promising debut, is yet to finish out of the frame. She enjoys cut in the ground, and despite a six pound rise in the ratings can give a good account here. After drawing a blank last year, Froissee has left that form well behind, just touched off at Yarmouth before justifying favouritism twice since. She enjoys a softer surface, and although racing off a nine pound higher mark here, comes into the race brimful of confidence and with conditions to suit. Froissee can land a hat-trick.
