50/1

Confirmed debut promise when winning at Redcar in July. Last of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 20/1) 19 days ago. Significantly up in trip and has a bit to prove on the back of that.

Forecasts

Kinetic (11/4), Dibble Dabble (11/4), Forest Spirit (9/2), Queen's Company (13/2), Spirit Of The Bay (7/1), Maundy Thursday (10/1), Cherry Cola (14/1), What's She At (50/1)

Backing SPIRIT OF THE BAY comes with risks attached given her record fresh but the handicapper has given her a major chance if she is fit for this return. Kinetic and Forest Spirit have both been in excellent form of late and seem sure to go well again.
