Verdict
Jamie Spencer travels north just to ride Parc De Launay so his presence on Tom Tate's charge has to be noted especially as his mount has dropped to a feasible mark. It's not surprising to see Galician out again under a penalty as she scored with plenty in hand at Ayr. She looks certain to make a bold bid for the hat-trick but the concession of 19lb to TAKEALOOKATMENOW may prove beyond her. Dandy Nicholls filly, who progressed to win a 6f maiden at Redcar in October, showed good pace before fading over 7f on her reappearance at Haydock and that will have blown the cobwebs away. Nicholls also runs Indego Blues and he's one to keep an eye on as is Springheel Jake, who was caught on the post over the C&D last month and must be a threat from the same mark. Available progressed from a seller to score at Nottingham but faces give in the ground for the first time.
