SUNBLAZER, a runner-up at this track on a couple of occasions actually finished closer to the winner when sixth at Lingfield on Wednesday. He just gets the vote on his proven form though any number of these could improve past him. Tight Knit and Inessa Armand have both gone close while Portrait and Mallory Heights look sure to finish closer on only their second starts. Good Evans is half-brother to a Listed winner, Chief Executive's dam won a Group 3 race and fellow newcomer, Rainford Glory, is another to keep an eye on in the betting.
