Spirit Of Applause

Selected at: 15/2

Spirit Of Applause wasn’t suited by the trip and the higher grade at York last time out but he was only beaten by a length when third off a 1lb higher mark at Doncaster on his penultimate start. A reproduction of that performance would give him every chance here.
