Verdict

Spring Bloom has placed in all four outings including his handicap debut at Newbury on his reappearance while Knightcap won a nursery at Catterick last year and is 6lb higher. The latter will be sharper today but MAGICAL MOMENT (NAP) had Dream Together back in third when successful in a maiden at Pontefract on her return. Kevin Ryan’s filly looks worth sticking with now handicapping and is preferred to Twist Of Hay and Dandy's Angel, who also make their handicap debuts.
