Verdict

Second twice off higher marks over course and distance in June, this is just the type of race for CHINESE SPIRIT (NAP) who seeks a third victory at the track. Tacitus has run four times here and only placed once but did beat Revoquable at Redcar in June with the latter only fourth behind Makalu earlier at the same track. Propagation is now 0-22 with Yeeeaah 0-19 and none of the others make much appeal.
