Verdict
Harmonic Wave and Danzeb step up a grade after landing handicaps on their latest starts at Musselburgh and Hamilton respectively and Spike makes more appeal now handicapping for the first time after picking up a maiden race at Pontefract with Dacoity, due to run in the previous race, back in third. Celebration drops down in class but remains 9lb higher than his earlier win at Sandown while Silver Wings is also on the ease. But another chance goes to AMPLE in this as he failed to see out the 6f in better company at Salisbury last time having won by five lengths over the minimum trip before that.
