Saxon Lil, Juste Pour L'Amour and Blue Empire look the three to concentrate on in this tight affair and the narrow vote is given to Saxon Lil. The selection has won her last two races in good style and although she is rising in the weights she won with plenty in hand when beating Aviation last time out and is taken to win again under conditions that suit. Juste Pour L'Amour rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Hadrian but he still looks vulnerable off this mark and for that reason is overlooked here. Blue Empire is another worthy of respect as he also won well last time out when beating Baby Barry but he has a penalty for that win and this looks more competitive. Of the remainder Burley Flame and Baylaw Star are game and consistent and are sure to run their races but they look vulnerable and for the winner we return to Saxon Lil.
