    Verdict

    BLAZEON FIVE missed out on a four-timer at Kempton but was beaten less than a length and looks up to winning off his current mark on that evidence. Chelmsford winner Military Two Step could only manage fourth at Kempton but still finished in front of both Smart Champion and Grandee while Mukha Magic has plenty to find with the selection. Fleurman has won over hurdles since last seen on the Flat and could go well.
