BAZALGETTE made a belated seasonal debut at Ffos Las recently having undergone wind surgery and will be sharper for the outing. He gets the vote in a weak contest judged on last year’s placed efforts. Cobra Kai disappointed last time having won at Ripon before that with Thakuri behind while Caracristi posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently and may prove best of the rest.
