SPIRIT WARNING just failed to catch the winner in a conditions race last time and was beaten less than a length in a higher grade handicap than this over track and trip before that. He gets the vote given Sash was well beaten at Ascot recently having won here earlier and Arcanada failed to cope with a 4lb rise at Haydock last time having scored at the same track earlier. Family Fortunes was upped in class on his latest start but placed in a similar contest here in June and is preferred to Mr Tyrrell off his current mark.
