Verdict
Masai Spirit has yet to race over this far having won over a mile here last time while Poetic Legacy is now 11lb higher than when scoring over track and trip last month having placed in both subsequent starts. But BILLIE BEANE finished runner-up here on her debut over 1m2f and Jon Scargill’s filly gets the vote racing off a similar mark today. Dreamboat Dave finished in front of Dyagilev when placed over track and trip recently and Percy Toplis has been thereabouts without winning as is usually the case.
