Verdict

Lisselan Pleasure has been thereabouts over longer trips of late and should be in the mix once again along with Mayan Flight, who also drops back in distance. Spiritual Art is another whose best recent form has been over 1m4f and preference goes to CHASIN' RAINBOWS. The lightly-raced four-year-old scored over today's trip at Brighton a fortnight ago and there should be more to come from Sylvester Kirk's filly. Gee Major and The Wonga Coup posted better efforts last time but both have something to prove on their previous efforts over 1m2f.
