Verdict
A mile on good ground or quicker has been the making of HOSTILE FIRE and there seems no reason to desert him now. Jamie Spencer retains the ride and the pair can defy a 6lb penalty for a very comfortable Nottingham success. Si Senor and Soul Of Motion have yet to score on Turf and Ajig appeals as the likeliest threat with the Johnson Houghton horses running well at present. A third of 14 in a fair Sandown handicap this month represented a best run for some time, she looks ready for this extra furlong and contends off an unchanged mark. Dream Impossible, unfortunate last time, has each-way claims off a decent rating.
