Racing Spirit won over course and distance last month, his first success in 28 starts under Rules. He’s been raised 7lb, which makes him vulnerable. Hidden Depths won twice on the Flat at Bath last month and remains unexposed over timber so goes on the shortlist but Uttoxeter runner-up Little Saint is now 0-15. The eight-year-old BOOYAKASHA has been off the track since March 2018 but Nicky Richards has booked Brian Hughes for his return to action and he wouldn’t have been kept in training unless thought capable of winning races.
