Verdict

TIME TO SPARKLE has taken well to this trip recently and has been knocking on the door in slightly better contests so she could be too good up against some older rivals for the first time. Offiah's Boy holds obvious claims under a penalty having scored comfortably at Lingfield and could be a big threat, while Haveagobeau is another that comes here in good form.
