This step up in trip could be the catalyst for further improvement from FOREST SPIRIT, who duly left her low-key novice form well behind when going close upped to 1½m on her handicap debut here in September. She earns the vote ahead of Balgowan, who also found just one too good on his latest start at Lingfield. Black Smoke would be in with a shout, too, if able to bounce back.
