Salisbury Race 3 - Mps Services Group Conditions Stakes (Gbb Race)
STANHOPE GARDENS (2) looked good landing a maiden at Beverley. Last seen finishing a nose-second in the Emirates Autumn Stakes G3 at Newmarket. The one to beat first-up. STARK WARNING (3) recorded a 3L success debuting at Ffos Las. Outclassed when last of eight next time in a Listed contest at Haydock. Potential for better on his seasonal return having been gelded. SPIRIT OF FARHH (1) can strip much fitter for his Newbury reappearance and merits consideration.

Second run back. Comes off a 43-day let-up. First-up after six months ran last of 9 at Newbury on April 11 over 1400m, 26 len behind Back In Black with 59kg at $5. Previously second-up 3rd of 13 at Newbury on September 20 over 1200m, slow going 1.0 len behind Fast Track Harry with 60.5kg at $4.50. Won't find this easy regardless of the field size.

Racing first-up today. Not seen since he finished last of 8 at Haydock Park in the LR Ascendant Stakes September 7 over 1600m, 8 len behind Luther carrying 59kg at $8.50. At his first start won by 2.75 len Ffos Las August 6 over 1500m slow track defeating Bold Impact with 60.5kg at $8. Open to improvement this time in work and is worth including.
