EXPANDED showed tremendous promise as a juvenile, notably when second in the Dewhurst, and should appreciate this drop in grade after recent disappointments. Evening Blossom is worth another chance returning to this course where her form suggests she can be competitive. Fiery Lucy has been consistent in listed company and should be on the premises again.
