SPIRIT RIDGE was probably helped by the runner-up's reluctance when winning at Catterick last time, but still appeals as the likeliest winner in this line-up, with War Drums perhaps the main threat after a promising debut for his new yard over C&D last time. Moon of Baroda is exposed, but could be helped by a first-time visor, so can't be ignored, while the market will tell a story with a couple of well-bred newcomers at the foot of the weights.
