      In depth

      Verdict

      All can be given a chance though Blausee has her first start since scoring at Wolverhampton back in October. Transition beat previous winner Stanford when successful in a handicap at Kempton and is 4lb higher while the progressive Bold Suitor has been raised 7lb after winning at the same track and is upped in class for this. But MANAABIT (NAP) beat a rival rated 78 in novice company at Newcastle last month and that should stand the Haggas filly in good stead in this company as she goes handicapping for the first time with further improvement expected.
