Verdict

A couple of these carry penalties for recent course and distance wins including Double Martini but BLAZING DREAMS is preferred have recorded all three wins on the all-weather so far at this track. He got the better of High Fort and Mango Chutney last week with Newmarket Warrior and Proceeding further behind and another bold bid is expected with Ben Haslam’s yard in good form. Curfewed has a bit to find with Double Martini while Kind Review is having his first outing since last summer.
