Verdict
MAY BLOSSOM has historically tended to bloom in July and she may have dropped to a handy enough mark with which to do so this evening. Refuge proved a ready winner at Haydock last time out and soft going shouldn’t present any problems in the slightest. Straits Of Moyle has joined Robert Cowell from Richard Fahey and any market support should be noted. Dream By Day is a previous soft ground winner over course and distance while Fortunate Star landed a gamble here in May and the handicapper has fired a stinging riposte of a 10lb rise up the weights for those endeavours.
