Verdict
BLUE FLAME was denied in the final strides over track and trip a week ago though finished in front of Laura's Breeze. Stuart Williams’ charge should make another bold bid from the front. Landlordtothestars went close at Newmarket before disappointing at Salisbury while Nubough placed over track and trip last month when ahead of Nemorum. Solar Portrait has only his second start in a handicap and may improve.
