Having returned to form with a win at Chepstow last month, the scene is set for GREAT BLASKET to deliver the goods once again. The 5-y-o remains well treated judged on peak 2024 form and he gets the nod ahead of Jimmy Speaking, who is also lurking on an attractive mark. Chalk Mountain is holding his form well and is another to consider, along with Signcastle City.
