Verdict
HELLAVAPACE has been threatening to get her head in front and finished well ahead of South Carolina when runner-up at Bath last time. She’s taken to go one better in this given Spirit Level is unproven over the trip having placed over 7f at Chepstow last month. The latter is still preferred to Adace, who disappointed last time and was due to run at Brighton yesterday while Throne Power makes his handicap debut having shown little so far.
