      Verdict

      None of these inspire much confidence in their current form including Impart, who completed a double including a course and distance success before well beaten at Chelmsford in October by It's All A Joke. The latter has struggled subsequently and Golden Salute has finished last in both starts so far this year having shown progressive form last season. Little Palaver has been beaten in both outings over 6f since winning at Bath earlier and it remains to be seen if ROCKIES SPIRIT fares any better than the above attempting to build on a recent success over today’s trip at Wolverhampton, though he has tumbled down the weights this year and may well go in again off a 3lb higher mark.
