Forecasts

Blaze A Trail (11/4), Special Buddy (9/2), Steady The Ship (9/2), Boston Joe (5/1), Smith's Bay (6/1), Time To Bite (7/1), Makety (12/1), Debden Bank (16/1), Severus Alexander (66/1)

Verdict

BLAZE A TRAIL had shown little since joining his current yard, but fitted with a hood, he returned to form when an easy winner of a C&D handicap 25 days ago. The 8-y-o remains on a good mark based on his form in Ireland, so he can see off the challenge of Steady The Ship who has taken well to chasing for Jonjo O'Neill. Smith's Bay completes the shortlist.

  1. BLAZE A TRAIL (IRE)
  2. STEADY THE SHIP (IRE)
  3. SMITH'S BAY
