        Verdict

        Spark Up, I Wish, Flying Dancer and, possibly, High Rhythm, are shortlisted with the vote going to Spark Up. Spark Up and I Wish are course and distance winners, and the former comes into this on the back of an extended-mile win here from a three-pounds lower rating. Even so, he gets plenty of respect here, while the latter has consistently proven competitive from this mark, mainly at this distance at Lingfield but, having run well over course and distance last time, gets a favourable mention. Zimbali is trying a new trip, as is Limonia, who has not built on a course maiden win. The lightly-raced Eskimo's Nest is now dropping to a more-sensible mark and has run well here at maiden level, while all-weather debutant Monda's sole career win in four runs has come at this trip. Give Irish import Rain Holly the once-over in the betting, and Party Princess would have a chance on form of a year ago, but has yet to fully prove she stays this far. Gaudalpin has improved recently for a step up to today's trip, while High Rhythm is no forlorn hope based on the best of her form, and, given that she was only just beaten from today's mark at Bath last time, Flying Dancer must be given some kind of a chance. It all adds up to an interesting affair, with the vote going to Spark Up.
