Verdict
Sir Busker still looks a shade high in the weights and headgear is applied while Conspiritor finished in front of Balata Bay when third at Sandown and drops down in distance. Sassoon also returns to 7f after placing at Windsor while Spirit Of May moves in the opposite direction having won over 6f at Chelmsford before going close again at Salisbury. But ELIGIBLE returned to action with a much better effort in maiden company at Leicester when finishing clear of the rest. Clive Cox’ charge should make a bold bid now handicapping for the first time and can come out best.
