Verdict

JANNAS JOURNEY has had plenty of racing but she remains unexposed as a sprinter and could be worth another chance. Annie Edson Taylor had a couple of these in behind when winning over C&D early this month so is next best ahead of Persian Spirit, who should strip fitter for her comeback run.

7	Back to winning ways at Thirsk in June and put a couple of below-par efforts behind her when resuming winning ways in refitted cheekpieces over C&D early this month. Can go well again under similar conditions. 2nd Pick 7 Annie Edson Taylor Jockey: Sam James Trainer: Phillip Makin J: Sam James T: Phillip Makin	96	-	-	-	23%

2	Lightly-raced filly but a dual 6f winner for Richard Hannon. Showed plenty of spark before shaping as if needing the run after 12 months off at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and better expected now. 3rd Pick 2 Persian Spirit (Ire) Jockey: Billy Loughnane Trainer: Edward Bethell J: Billy Loughnane T: Edward Bethell	94	-	-	-	25%
