AUTUMM SPIRIT weakened in the latter stages over C&D on her latest start, but she had won with a bit in hand at Leicester before that and Robin Dickin's mare can return to winning ways dropping down a grade here. Goodtimetoby produced his best effort over fences so far when third at Exeter last month and can figure, but Muntami, a multiple winner over hurdles, has yet to show anything like that form over the larger obstacles. The remainder have done little to recommend them here.
