Verdict
BLUE FLAME has returned a beaten favourite on a couple of occasions this year but made no mistake at Wolverhampton a week ago. He can go close once again. Sir Sedric posted a better effort here last week on his debut for new connections while Dourado should have come on for a recent outing at Windsor. Evasive Power has tumbled down the weights and the less exposed Diva Dancer is back up in trip.
