Blessed Place gained an overdue victory at Lingfield recently and having run well on Friday can regain the winning thread today, Cerlulean Rose and Dance To The Blues look the pick of the opposition. The selection had been knocking on the door all season before landing that Lingfield contest, where he beat Avit by a comfortable half a length. A repeat of that effort should be good enough this afternoon. Cerlulean Rose bounced back to form when second to Linda Green over course and distance last month. She wasn't beaten far at Thirsk on Friday and if none the worse for those exertions she should be involved in the finish. Dance To The Blues is dropping down to handy mark and could go well at decent odds, however Blessed Place is hard to ignore in this mood and gets our vote.
