In depth
Verdict
Hard Toffee won over 1m3f at Goodwood earlier and is only 2lb higher. Santiburi Spring has been raised 4lb for scoring over today’s trip at Kempton while it was heavy going when Rocktherunway won over 1m6f at Hamilton in September. Maulesden May was second over track and trip ahead of La Contessa and Henpecked last week while Aislabie was placed here last month. SPINNERS BALL had little chance in a Class 2 contest last time but had won in this grade at Lingfield before that and Sylvester Kirk’s unexposed colt get the nod in an open contest.
