Verdict

AZURE BLUE displayed an electric turn of foot to open her account in handicaps at Hamilton last week and, wisely turned out under a penalty, Michael Dods's progressive sprinter is fancied to go in again with further progress on the cards. The main danger could be Khanjar, who was made to work quite hard to get off the mark at Ascot when last seen back in September but is fancied to kick on now moving into handicaps. Mattice looks best of the rest.
