Verdict
BLUE YONDER has gone close on a couple of occasions since completing a double back in May and Richard Fahey’s grey looks up to scoring off his current mark. Elshaameq won at Chelmsford before beaten on Tapeta but Goldsmith still looks high enough in the weights and cheekpieces are added to the usual hood. Lunarscape and Prince Ali have been in the mix over a mile recently while both City Escape and Blue Hero completed doubles on the Turf earlier in the year.
