Verdict
Harvest Day won at Thirsk before going close again over track and trip. She’s preferred to Esprit De Corps, who has been thereabouts recently though has only won a maiden so far in 28 starts. CASTLE QUARTER has shown good progress since joining Seb Spencer and won over course and distance again last month with the re-opposing Double Martini back in fourth - he’s taken to make another bold bid in this. Elixsoft was beaten only a nose here before struggling over a mile while Silver Dust will be sharper for a recent comeback but Valley of Fire has yet to win on the all-weather.
