      Verdict

      Blue De Vega is in excellent form but has never won off a mark this high. Stablemate Ishvara is back in a handicap and could go well but Celsius has been found wanting when tackling this grade in the past. Acclaim The Nation beat a big field at York and conditions won’t be a problem but COUNT D’ORSAY is probably worth sticking with. He only just failed to confirm earlier running with Came Form The Dark on soft ground at Haydock last time and appears to have the beating of both Ainsdale and Dave Dexter on the form book.
