The presence of two Sir Mark Prescott inmates is interesting but we think that BUZZ BIRD holds the best claims with Eight Hours and Blue Zephyr the others of note. David Barron's charge knows how to win around this circuit and would be much shorter in the betting were his recent run on the turf ignored. Eight Hours has been turned over in two recent plating events and connections rely upon the visor in order to work some magic.Blue Zephyr has been disappointing though should find seven furlongs much more to his liking this afternoon. Itsthursdayalready is in first time blinkers. This will be a welcome drop in grade. Taper Jean Girl has lost her way badly while Star Cruiser rates just 50. The two Prescott runners showed nothing over shorter on their debut and much more is required. Not a race to linger too long over and Buzz Bird is the bet.
