    Verdict

    DIVISIONIST is not the most consistent but has leading claims on his best form. He went close at Wolverhampton back in April and was placed in a handicap at the same track last time. Thundering Blue looks likely to take advantage if the selection runs below par having finished runner-up at Lingfield last month and that looks stronger form than Chandon Elysees’ third at Salisbury. Eltham is a likely improver and is preferred to the newcomers Artscape and Murraqib.
