Verdict
TWILIGHT HEIR has the strongest form having suffered a couple of narrow-margin defeats including at Bath last time on his debut for Michael Bell. He’s the one to beat if proving as effective on today’s slower ground. Mr Trevor and Brave Blossom look likely improvers with the latter preferred to stablemate Victim while The Thin Blue Line makes more appeal than Gaelic Secret of Keith Dalgleish’s duo. But fellow newcomer Party Rebel is a full-sister to a Listed winner and a half-sister to three other winners and may prove a bigger threat.
