Verdict
SPIRITOUS never figured at Haydock when attempting 5f for the first time but drops down a couple of grades for this and has gone close in soft ground before. He was ahead of Cuppacoffee at Haydock and the latter has yet to encounter soft going while it was fast ground when Diable d'Or, Blue Suede and Spin Doctor won earlier this year. Northern Thunder failed to land a hat-trick when well beaten in Listed company at Ayr behind fifth-placed Coolfitch but both should find life easier back at this level and Prince Of Cool could also figure if handling the surface.
