Verdict
SPIRIT IN MY SOUL was fitted with blinkers when joining Declan Carroll and has won both starts for the yard so far. The hat-trick beckons given the ease of her latest success at Thirsk. Giselles Izzy went close when last seen over track and trip in July and American Affair drops down in distance having placed at Ayr the last twice. Roshambo is creeping closer and placed at Newmarket recently while Thaki won at Ayr last month with Mighty Power back in fifth.
