      Verdict

      EVOCATIVE SPARK is penalised having been awarded the race by the stewards’ at Ffos Las when bumped in the closing stages but Hugo Palmer has an impressive strike rate at the track and Oisin Murphy takes over the reins. Qitaal finished a promising third at Haydock on his debut and has every chance while Sharvara placed at Thirsk and is a rare runner here for the Hannon yard as he steps up in trip but the remainder are harder to recommend.
