        Verdict

        Spirit Of Adjisa has some smart enough form in context but on this ground he may struggle to follow up a recent Epsom success, and we will side with DAZZLING LIGHT. Trainer Jim Goldie has his runners is decent form, trip and ground suit his Halling gelding, who is now back on the same mark as when scoring at Musselburgh in the spring. This is probably one of the lesser quality races that he has contested since that success and he can take advantage. Inspector Clouseau is respected after sneaking home in front at Catterick last time. Fast ground suits Tom Tate's runner and with a 4lb rise he should be thereabouts. Zuwaar has proved too hard to win with since scoring off this mark at Haydock in April, but he should be ultra competitive once again and is respected. Little else makes appeal and Dazzling Light can take the last.
