SPIRIT OF ASH has an excellent record here and shaped well from a poor position behind Yakhabar at this course last time, so she's fancied to reverse the form with that rival provided the pace is solid. Humble Spark also arrives at the top of his game, so he's another player in a race that looks quite competitive for a 0-60.
