Verdict

The speedy Little Eli has made all over 5f here in the past and is worth another try over this longer trip. But he'll provide a good target for MAMBO SPIRIT to aim at in this after the latter just failed to get his head in front over track and trip on his latest start. Tony Newcombe's veteran is also preferred to Bush Beauty, a course and distance winner last month before failing to figure over the minimum trip. Pastureyes has lost her way since landing a double over 5f on the Turf and Diamond Blue is proving hard to win with nowadays.
