Racing Post verdict
Third-partySpiritoftheblues holds a narrow edge over Cancelled on ratings and heads our figures, suggesting she is capable of justifying that superiority over this mile trip on good-to-firm ground at Leicester. Cancelled represents the most pressing threat and will need to be watched closely, while Kaori and Tamzan cannot be entirely dismissed if the selection fails to fire. On balance, **Spiritoftheblues** gets the nod, though this is far from a straightforward call.
