Doug Watson continued his fine start to the campaign here on Thursday and Rayig would have to be considered if getting a run from his reserve spot. Stable companion Lytham St Annes has won three times on Dirt here but never on Turf and, with seven entries, Satish Seemar should hold the key. Leading Spirit showed that there is a race for him in his three starts for the yard in the spring but WAY OF WISDOM holds a fitness advantage. The latter easily beat Midlander and Speedy Move in a handicap on Dirt on his return to action and made a bold bid to defy 7lb extra next time. He's equally at home on Turf and can get back to winning ways.
