Verdict

This can go the way of ADMIRAL'S SUNSET, who took advantage of a much-reduced mark to spring a surprise on return at this track just under a fortnight ago and, nudged up just 4 lb, David Weston's 10-y-o could well take some stopping provided she's in the same mood. Blaze A Trail proved a revelation last season and he heads up the dangers chasing an impressive 6-timer, with Swaffham Bulbeck third on the list.

  1. ADMIRAL'S SUNSET
  2. BLAZE A TRAIL (IRE)
