Verdict
Andrew Balding’s yard is in fine form and FLOATING SPIRIT made a winning debut at Kempton. This extra distance will suit and she can defy a penalty given the others with experience have yet to threaten. Intergalacticat failed to show any progress at Southwell last time while Chelmsford third Margaret's Fuchsia steps up from 5f on her reappearance. Rose Bolt is related to a winner on the all-weather and is preferred to Emperor's Clothes and Arumadaay of the newcomers.
