Blue Point (13/8), Harry Angel (7/2), Seven Heavens (7/1), Mokarris (7/1), Mubtasim (10/1), Sir Dancealot (16/1), Visionary (16/1), Yalta (20/1), Tis Marvellous (25/1), Rosie Briar (33/1), Legendary Lunch (50/1), Koropick (50/1)
This very much looks as though it will provide a good trial race for the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, a race that has provided some focus for the enhanced three-year-old sprinting programme. Harry Angel looks to be a very progressive type although it’s hard to know what to expect after his Mill Reef win but the consequence of that win is that he has to concede weight all round. The Charlie Appleby yard have made a good start to the season and BLUE POINT who looks every inch a sprinter can build on his impressive Gimcrack win. Sir Dancealot is a fascinating runner going sprinting again while Mokarris, Tis Marvellous and Seven Heavens (if he settles) provide depth in a well rounded and hot contest.
