Verdict

A small field goers to post for this seller and it looks a straight forward opportunity for L'Etang Bleu to get back on the winning trail. The gelding from the Martin Pipe yard was a good third behind Double Blade last time out and a reproduction of that effort should suffice. King's Travel rates the main danger he is a course and distance winner who will go on the ground but he may struggle to give weight and a beating to the selection. Of the remainder Forzacurity has won at up to a mile on the flat and he has shown a modicum of ability over hurdles but he will need to improve significantly to defeat the the selection L'Etang Bleu
