Verdict
FAWSLEY SPIRIT has returned from point-to-points in excellent form. Just beaten at Doncaster on his reappearance, he was in front when falling at the last at Ascot before a comfortable course and distance success. He couldn't quite make most back at Ascot last time but today's conditions should prove ideal. Fantastikas finished runner-up four times before getting off the mark at Fontwell and makes his handicap debut while One For You is up 6lb for landing a Ludlow novices' handicap in the style of an improver. Linelee King has already won a point-to-point, a bumper and a novices' hurdle so doesn't look badly treated despite going up 4lb for finishing second at Southwell.
