BLUE CLOVER never threatened the impressive winner Lime Avenue when second at Chepstow last month but should find this easier and gets the vote. Pure Theatre was narrowly beaten at Fakenham in April and has switched yards subsequently while Ottoline placed in heavy going at Warwick early in the year but the remainder make no appeal.
