      In depth

      Verdict

      Porfin has been beaten over longer distances since scoring at Lingfield and looks high enough in the weights but BLAZING HOT has now won three times over the minimum trip. He landed a higher grade sprint over course and distance a fortnight ago and is only 3lb higher for this. Tathmeen and Portelet Bay have been thereabouts over 6f recently but Snow Berry landed a double over 5f on Turf last Autumn and Tanasoq has won off today’s mark here in the past.
