POET'S WORD and Rockspirit are two nice prospects for this season who look set to go on to better things. Sir Michael Stoute has had three winners in the past fortnight and all have been ridden by Ryan Moore (gained from just four rides). POET'S WORD landed a gamble in a competitive handicap at the big Goodwood meeting before ailing to justify further confidence in another hot handicap at Doncaster next time. He appears to have a shade easier task at the weights than Rockspirit who outran his BHA rating to land a conditions race here last time. Marco Botti's charge is sure to progress but will need to run above that level here. Fire Fighting and Qaffaal will give their usual honest accounts whilst Intrude will be winning soon from this mark.
