THE TIMEFORM VIEW A competitive handicap with the vote in favour of BLUE RC. James Tate’s colt was quickly back on the up when finishing a good second on handicap debut at Kempton (7f) 3 weeks ago and a good pace to aim at will certainly aid his cause again here Daring Legend is knocking on the door and he’s feared following his excellent York second. Master Richard is another well worthy of a look from a handy mark.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW DANDY FITZ went with plenty of zest when finding only a well backed (and subsequent winner) rival too strong over C&D 11 days ago and from the same mark, he has plenty to recommend him. Golden Rainbow will doubtless give it another good go, while Holbache will surely be back on his game with his reappearance behind him.
