Verdict

SPARKS FLY has proved a revelation since being switched to the turf and, having readily seen off a well-backed handicap debutante from a top yard at Chester 9 days ago, David Loughnane's 3-y-o gets the nod to bring up a remarkable 6-timer. Young Fire got back to winning ways at Haydock recently and may emerge as the main threat remaining with handicapping scope judged on last year's form. Irish-raider Royal Pippen and Power of Gold can fight out third spot.
