Verdict
Squire went close at Kempton recently but that was over a mile and SPICED has placed over the same trip the last twice now. The latter is less exposed than most of these and this extra distance may well see the Haggas filly open her account. Lily Ash also steps up in trip after winning at Beverley while both Lulu Star and New Street won over track and trip in August with the former preferred. Grasmere is creeping closer and may prove best of the rest.
