Verdict

SPIRITOFTHEDAWN clearly has something in hand of her basement mark judged on her fine effort at Navan on her handicap debut and won't be far away again if building on that performance. Rampage is a big danger after his Gowran near-miss, with Lohengrin another to consider after his narrow defeat at Laytown.
