Verdict

Blazing Hot landed a double over the minimum trip here last week but has yet to win over this far in 11 previous attempts. TELL’EM NOWT also bids for a hat-trick having won over course and distance last time and given he’s due to be raised 3lb more than today’s penalty in the future, Phil McEntee’s charge gets the vote to confirm latest running with Deevious Beau. The latter should be in the mix once again while Ginato finished in front of Blackjack when placed here though neither threatened the winner.
