In depth

Verdict

Blakeshall Quest is one of the more consistent in the lineup and he gets the vote to add to his multitude of course and distance wins; Kingsmaite and Tenancy make it to the shortlist. Although not exactly ideally drawn in 14, the selection has solid claims today. He does have some fair early pace so assuming that he can hold a fairly prominent position early on without going around the houses, he is certainly on a fair mark from which to make an impact. Kingsmaite ran well last time out, whilst Limonia is fairly consistent and won't mind a return to the all-weather. Tenancy represents Alan McCabe, along with Piccleyes, and both need respect as their trainer does very well here. The Cube needs a market check now returning from a break, whilst Missus Molly Brown has claims on the pick of her runs but is hard to predict. An open handicap, with Blakeshall Quest given the vote.
