Verdict
This is no better than the first division and a chance is taken that the lightly-raced LASER BLAZER will improve further. He caught the eye finishing strongly in the closing stages at Wolverhampton last time behind subsequent hat-trick hero Maven and Jeremy Gask's charge can reverse running with third-placed Corrib. Supporters of recent Wolverhampton winner, Idol Deputy, will be looking for a big run from runner-up Red Flash in the previous race, while Prince Of Thebes and Regal Rave are both likely to attract some interest on the back of their recent placed efforts.
