      Verdict

      Humidor was second in this in 2013 but hasn't won since 2011 and is likely to find at least one too good again. SPINATRIX will love underfoot conditions and looks the one to beat on last year's form, though she hasn't raced over the minimum trip for more than three years which has to be a worry. Justineo could run her close if in the mood, despite his penalties, but Dutch Masterpiece has plenty to prove after disappointing on his only outing last year. Blithe Spirit is quite speedy and looks the pick of the remainder.
