Verdict

This represents a big drop in class for SPARTAN ARMY given he contested the Adonis at Kempton a month ago and he's fancied to get right back on track. Jilaijone was disappointing in handicap company last time but is still the obvious threat, though Only Fools did win twice on the Flat in France.
