ALWAYS BLUE has far fewer miles on the clock than most and provided her ability can be channelled more efficiently than it was at Thirsk 3 weeks ago, Harriet Bethell's filly has every chance of going one better. On The Inlet shaped really well when fourth at Brighton last week and if cutting out his slow starts, he rates a big danger. Regal Desire and Galba can fight out minor honours.
