GOLDEN SPIRIT (3) faced the starter for the first time and finished seventh last start at this track (Dirt) over 4½f, beaten 14 lengths. Can improve sharply and is expected to feature. SLICK MERLIN (1) is a two-year-old filly facing the starter for the first time. From a very strong family, being by Sea Wizard from Crafty Coed. Should get all the favours from this good gate and is certainly worth considering. NOON TIME TIDE (6) is a nicely bred two-year-old filly making her first appearance at the races. By Sea Wizard from High Noon Nellie who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Eddie Jr Owens yard. Promising type who should be monitored for market support. CLEVER CHARLIE (2) is a two-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Dan Ward. By Flameaway from Countess Geraldine. Top-three chance.
