Spin A Wish finally opened her account on her latest start but over a shorter trip in a heavy ground seller at Redcar. She's facing very different conditions here and the tentative vote goes instead to ARABIAN FLIGHT. She won at Lingfield last year and her latest close-up third over C&D suggests a return to winning ways is imminent. Koo And The Gang and Petersboden posted better efforts last time but Moheebb never got involved at this track last time despite racing off a much lower mark on the all-weather.
