        Verdict

        Brazen Spirit may have found the drop back to 5f against him at Lingfield last time and this is easier. Spinaminnie posted her best effort so far when runner-up over track and trip and could get involved while Tarragon ran much better on his debut at Wolverhampton than he did over 7f here recently. Sample and Optimystic are worth a second glance but fellow newcomer ERSHAAD is of more interest given he's a half-brother to seven winners - he may prove good enough at the first time of asking.
