Verdict
OAK BLUFFS last won a race just over a year ago on this track but has been performing consistently and his young rider's claim is a bonus. He looks certain to go close so looks the one to be on. Tafahom was only narrowly beaten into third at Catterick last time and still looks fairly treated despite a 2lb rise. Centre Haafhd has gradually dropped to a mark he should be winning from soon but Arcane Dancer's two victories on Turf have come over Beverley's stiff track. Wahaab has yet to prove he stays this far and his last victory was in a seller.
