Kind Spirit sets the form standard but is far from cast-iron, having been sent off at 4/1 or shorter on all four starts to date without managing to get his head in front. He seems sure to be in the firing line again but James Doyle is an eye-catching booking for the O'Meara team on BARA LACHA and the filly is a decent alternative in what could prove quite a tactical affair. Kiss N Cuddle showed improved form last time to defeat a better-backed stable companion and Hollie Doyle retains the ride as the Evans charge tackles nurseries for the first time. Carry On Aitch hasn't hit the frame in three starts but those efforts have not been devoid of promise and it will be interesting to see if there's any money for the filly under man-of-the-moment Rob Hornby.
