Paul Nicholls looks to have found a good opportunity for BLU CAVALIER to continue his excellent recent run of form and he is selected to complete a four-timer here, despite the penalties he has to defy. Higgs is coming along nicely and can probably chase him home, with Peterborough the one taken to complete the frame.
