Verdict

Spring Is Sprung is fitted with a visor and steps back up in trip while A Sure Welcome drifted in the betting here last time and never figured having won over track and trip before that. Yimou has his first outing since April looking to end a long losing run and a speculative vote goes the way of NEPTUNIAN. The latter ran out of steam in the closing stages at Newmarket on his return from a lay-off and first start after wind surgery and better is expected in this.
