      Verdict

      Baytown Blaze is taken to land this at the expense of Sempre Libera and Orpen's Art. The selection ran up to his best when second to Cocabana at Lingfield over todays trip last time out. That form looks rock sold and in a depleted field he only has to recapture that form to win here. Sempre Libera has done nothing wrong in defeat in his short career so far and could be an improver so he is definitely worth noting in the betting market . As is Orpen's Art who has nine pounds more on his plate since winning at Southwell recently so has a stiff task ahead. While The Little Fizzer showed he has ability by winning on his debut but this will be a different kettle of fish and he will need to improve dramatically to win again. So for the winner we return to Baytown Blaze.
