      Verdict

      Spoken Words took 31 starts to open her account and is hard to fancy under a penalty. Piccolo Express may well turn the tables with the former on better terms but TSARGLAS is preferred. The latter got off the mark at Kempton on only her sixth outing and should be capable of better despite a 3lb rise. Elite Freedom may prove best of the remainder having been placed off a higher mark here in August.
