Verdict
Paul Blockley will know all there is to know about Bella Boy Zee at this stage as she was claimed out of his yard for ¿6,000 after finishing second in a seller at Ripon a little over a week ago. However, it is difficult to see his Tango Tango getting the better of David Nicholls' new stable inmate, and the in-form filly can continue to pay her way in this moderate heat. Busted Flush and Cute Gait have improvement to find, so Baytown Shamrock is taken to fight it out for the forecast slot with Blockley's newcomer.
