RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SPIRIT OF SAHARA (6) is a good performer with the clear best recent sectional times in this event. He was eye-catching two starts back at Charlton when sustaining a long run without cover and still finishing strongly into second, despite racing an extra 25 metres and being beaten just 1.1 metres. The barrier is tricky, but with luck he’s the one to beat. MONSIEUR FLAMEL (5) is a last-start winner at Charlton and is well experienced in concession driver races. He was in strong form late last year and appears to be getting back to that level. FEEL THE REIGN (9) is in flying form having won his past two starts. Despite being an 11-year-old, he continues to flash home strongly and should again be in a striking position. PISTOL PEARCE (7) was a good winner at Melton three starts back and has ability when at his best. He has stable respect from the Andy Gath camp.
