Spin A Wish has plenty to find on form and official ratings and Wandering Lad looks up against it on today's terms. Auto Mac will need the first-time blinkers to bring about improvement if he's to open his account, but Janet's Pearl is consistent at this level and should run her race after scoring over a longer trip at Ripon last week. However, ABIDHABIDUBAI was headed close home by Materialism in a handicap here last time and a repeat effort by the highest rated horse in the field should see John Quinn's filly land this.
