Verdict
The spectacular form of the Gosden yard continues unabated and PLAYFUL SPIRIT has shown plenty of pace over longer trips before fading in the closing stages. This shorter distance should suit now handicapping for the first time. Belated Breath is another handicap debutante and won a novice race at Wolverhampton in March. She’s preferred to Hic Bibi, who scored at Kempton last year but has been beaten since. Shania Says has a chance on her third in better company at Goodwood in September while Flora Tristan is usually thereabouts without being quite good enough.
