Verdict

Highly Sprung bounced back to form when almost making all at Leicester and is on the same mark. DAVID'S DUCHESS beat two rivals at Hamilton then ran an excellent race when runner-up here last month. She was unlucky in-running at Yarmouth and can gain compensation. Quick Look made a successful debut at Brighton last summer and was returning from over a year off when a close third over the course and distance last month so he's an obvious threat along with Cosmic Chatter, who has been running well at this level all summer. Kestrel Call produced a shock when scoring at Doncaster but there was no fluke about the victory and he's only 3lb higher.
