        Verdict

        Blessed Place is preferred in the nightcap to Cerulean Rose and Lady Algarhoud. The selection has been running consistently well and he lost no caste in defeat when finishing third behind Intriguing Glimpse at Salisbury last time. The booking of Frankie Dettori catches the eye and he gets our vote. Cerulean Rose rates the main danger and this mare should be seen to better effect now that she is back doing her racing on fast ground. She should go well from a good draw but she has not won for nearly three years so she can't be backed with any confidence. Lady Algarhoud finished in mid-division at Wolverhampton last time but she had previously won well at Nottingham and if she could run up to that mark here she would surely make the frame. Salviati is a course and distance winner and he has not been beaten far on each of his last two starts, so he could go well at a price but for the winner we will stick with Blessed Place.
