Verdict

INSPIRED shaped better than the bare result when third on handicap debut at Newcastle 3 weeks ago, his early keenness telling at the business end. However, that effort highlighted he's on a good mark and he may be up to proving as much down to 7f. Elements of Fire looks a good acquisition for the Archie Watson stable and he's an obvious danger. The steadily progressive Captain Parma also makes appeal.

1	Low-mileage 4-y-o who had looked promising for the Gosden's stable and did nothing to alter that after 10 months off when making a winning start for new connections at Lingfield (7f) 25 days ago. Opening mark doesn't look insurmountable and he's of firm interest. 2nd Pick 1 Elements Of Fire Jockey: Hollie Doyle Trainer: Archie Watson J: Hollie Doyle T: Archie Watson	99	-	-	-	29%

5	Steadily progressive sort who took his form up a notch in a change of headgear when decisively off the mark in an 8-runner C&D handicap 9 days ago. Well positioned then but his consistency is impossible to knock. Respected for all this is tougher. 3rd Pick 5 Captain Parma (Ire) Jockey: Mason Paetel Trainer: James Owen J: Mason Paetel T: James Owen	94	-	-	-	36%
