Verdict

Surrey Blaze is back with Joseph Tuite having failed to win over hurdles for Dan Skelton. He’ll probably be happy to be back on the Flat but Hayley Turner’s mount LIGHTENING DANCE should have his measure as she was always travelling well when scoring last time at Newbury and has run well off this soft of mark in the past. Blue Medici has already won twice for Becky Smith this season and made a bold bid to complete the hat-trick at Haydock so is preferred to Chepstow winner Ascot Day of the others.
