Verdict
Guilded Spirit stepped up on his debut effort when third at Nottingham on soft ground in October. He may be open to further improvement but Mysterial has become disappointing having been sent off favourite in all four starts to date. He is now tried in blinkers but RIGHT TOUCH appears to have the better overall form and can be excused his run over 5f on fast ground at York in September. On an earlier fourth at Newmarket he gets the nod as he should stay 7f with another winter on his back. Castell Avon may prove the pick of the two fillies even though she has a sprinting pedigree.
