Verdict
Musselburgh winner CASTAN gets another chance despite only finishing third at Carlisle last time given he still finished in front of Kodi Dancer. Your Spirit has not improved as expected and returned a losing favourite at Pontefract last month. She makes her handicap debut along with Desert Illusion, who has been set some stiff tasks recently and had no chance in the Lowther at York last time.
