        Verdict

        None of these arrive with strong claims. Cuban Spirit was well beaten on his handicap debut and it remains to be seen if Dirayah fares any better now handicapping for the first time. Stopdworldnletmeof has been thereabouts over the minimum trip lately but is looking for his first win after 19 start while Nutopia reverts to 6f having placed over 7f at Newcastle recently. Fairway To Heaven never threatened when placed at Lingfield last time so a speculative vote goes to RED SNAPPER with October's outing over 7f under her belt as she finished runner-up off today's mark over 6f at Lingfield before that.
