BLUE AURA is given the vote to land this sprint handicap at the expense of The Human League and Boldinor. The selection won nicely at Chepstow on his penultimate outing but was unable to follow up off the same mark next time out at the same venue. Although he has now been reassessed by the handicapper and has the burden of seven more pounds to carry he is tough and consistent and is sure to give his supporters another good run for their money. The Human League is tried in visors for the first time having become a little frustrating this season. He did however perform well enough at Ayr last time out and with the help of the visors he warrants respect. Boldinor is the winner of two of his last three outings. He won at Brighton in June and was back in the winners enclosure at Leicester last time out. He is only one pound higher in the weights as a result so any market moves should be noted. Blue Aura has more ticks in his boxes compared to the majority of his rivals and looks the percentage call.
