An interesting contest packed with unexposed types from good yards, all likely to be far more at home in handicap company and inhabiting workable marks. INCA BLUE is just awarded the vote after showing much-improved form on his reappearance to hunt up Vetvey in a decent Redcar handicap after showing little in his juvenile campaign. Similar comments can be attributed to Ishikawa, sure to improve for the run after being inched out here last time when running green. Bumbling Bertie and Mystic Edge have yet to make the frame but represent very good yards and plenty of improvement at three is anticipated, whilst Sukhotai needs to be forgiven a poor show at Yarmouth last time after looking an improved filly at Kempton.
