None of these are especially convincing but CRAZY SPIN did at least return to form under a change of tactics when third in a 14-runner Southwell handicap last time. She could prove hard to peg back if again setting out to make all back at this course, the scene of her latest success in April. With No Diggity having run at Kempton on Wednesday, Laurentia and Recuerdame rate the main dangers.
