Verdict

Union Rose won off a higher mark here last year but has been very disappointing so far this season. Saaheq also seeks a third course victory but may be in the handicapper’s grip at present. SPUROFTHEMOMENT is speedy and, reunited with William Buick, can deny Buy Me Back a hat-trick if at her best. Newyorkstateofmind was entered yesterday at Bath while Libertine Belle is having a first run over the minimum. Spring Bloom looks best of the rest.
