Verdict

The hat-trick beckons for BLENKINSOP, who made it 2-2 in handicaps with the minimum of fuss at Southwell 10 days ago and with further progress on the cards, Henry Daly's charge is likely to take some stopping. A better showing is anticipated from Horn Cape now handicapping so he's put forward as the main danger, ahead of Famous Last Word, who makes his return from a 19-month absence.
