A poor handicap where Kindlelight Blue will be popular after winning last time but preference is for Blue Space, while Mister Always and Polyquest can also go well. The selection makes her handicap debut and went pretty well over this c&d last time. Philip Makin should be happy enough with her rating and she can break her duck. Kindlelight Blue beat the very ordinary Takes Tutu last time and goes well at this trip. Although not brilliant, that was at least winning form but a 6lb penalty will ask further questions. Mister Always is interesting stepped up half a mile in trip, though whther he will stay is anyone's guess, while Polyquest has won over 10f at Pontefract, though has never yet looked fully at home on the all weather, so he looks best watched. Blue Space is the one for us.
