Formscan - Although SYMBOLIC SPIRIT remains a maiden after 12 starts under Rules, it was interesting that she was sent off a warm favourite on her stable debut at Fakenham last month. Dan Skelton's new recruit found herself outpaced over 2m, but, eased 1lb in the handicap and back over further, it would come as no surprise were she to improve. An opening mark of 91 appears to be workable for Copernic Du Mazet and he is worth considering, along with Mountain Pass who, like the selection, should appreciate a step up in trip.
