Verdict
VAHA finished in front of Quickfire when fourth at Salisbury and this extra furlong should suit Ralph Beckett’s charge. Perfect Spring also step up in distance and is a likely improver while New Kings Road is a half-brother to several winners and is preferred to both Faster Bee and Drink Dry.
