    Verdict

    Sunblazer scored over the course and distance in November and won over 1m4f at Kempton last time but takes a leap in class off a higher mark. Luv U Whatever is normally very consistent at this sort of level so it was a surprise to see him run poorly at Chelmsford last time. He was earlier a close third behind Paddys Motorbike on that same track and has a big enough pull in the weights to reverse the form. Haines has had ten all-weather starts and won half of them including over this trip at Kempton last time though he's up three grades here and 7lb higher. BLUE SURF beat a big field to land a tough Epsom handicap last summer and has performed very well over this trip including at Lingfield last month. He has the quality to land this decent prize for Amanda Perrett.
