Rated 84, SPREADSHEET comes out best at the weights having placed in all three previous starts for Roger Varian. He’s switched yards since September having been gelded subsequently and Jim Boyle’s new charge is preferred to the more exposed Dazzling Des. The latter has a shout on these terms and won over the minimum trip here earlier in the year while Batchelor Boy went close at Chelmsford on his return from a lay-off and winners have come out of the race. Vormir travels over from Ireland having won a claimer at Naas and the newcomer Vape is a half-brother to a winner on the all-weather.
