In depth
Verdict
A competitive field goes to post for the fist on the card with many in form rivals in opposition including Analogy, Blue Venture and Longmeadows Boy and we will take a chance on Analogy. The three year old was a good winner on his debut when defeating Woodybetheone with plenty in hand and although he has a penalty for that win he will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Longmeadows Boy rates the main danger he beat Hilltime last time out and that form has since being franked. Blue Venture was also a winner last time out but that was in an easier race and for that reason he is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Lagosta is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with the more experienced Analogy.
