Verdict

It's difficult to ignore the claims of Blazed, who has been in fantastic form on the AW recently with form figures of 212 in his last three races, and should be capable of getting involved off his current mark, but preference is for TROTTER. He may be a maiden for the time being, but exactly half of his eight races have seen him finish second in AW events, and having run very well the last twice (including when second only to a short-priced favourite at Lingfield last time), he is taken to get off the mark at the ninth time of asking. C&D winner Rapid Ranger would need a career best to win this but has the potential to hit the frame.
