Verdict
Ivanhoe was just touched off at Salisbury after winning at Warwick but continues to climb the weights. Happy Families is 6lb higher than when winning a lesser contest at Bath so we'll stick with the rejuvenated SPICE FAIR. Mark Usher's stayer took advantage of a tumbling mark at Kempton nine days ago, when Saborido was fifth and Softsong was only seventh, and has a good record on this track. Pernica tries a new trip but is another with decent claims and Hi Note has gone well fresh in the past.
