Verdict

It can pay to stick with a sprinter in form and SLEEPY BLUE OCEAN is just that. A winner over the minimum trip at Southwell and Wolverhampton recently, he split those victories with a creditable third over C&D, and John Balding's charge is taken to continue his progress. Anjomarba won over 6f here last month and that seems her best trip these days while Decider is struggling to get his head back in front off his current mark. Electioneer has slipped down to a tempting mark and Pelmanism is worth noting on his return to action.
