Withdrawn
A wide open contest rounds off the card and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Blessed Place, Avit and Polar Haze and the narrow vote is given to Blessed Place. The selection has been in good form of late without winning but he was a good second off this mark behind Law Maker. This looks easier and he need only run up to that mark to score. Avit rates the main danger on his latest third but all his best form is on turf and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Polar Haze is another worthy of respect on his latest effort he hails from a yard in form and should be noted in the market. However he has been done no favours by the draw and on that basis he is over looked. Urban Calm won well last time out and although he has a penalty for that win he should go well, but he has yet to prove he is effective over this trip. Of the remainder Forzenuff is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Blessed Place.
