Punches Cross still hasn’t won over hurdles while Black Lightning isn’t getting any younger. Runner-up at Worcester in July, Alioski has since finished second again on the all-weather while Dakota Beat is in good form. Robbie Dazzler has disappointed this season but may have benefited from a break over the summer. Blazing Court was only beaten half-a-length over 2m4f here in July and remains unexposed but BLUEBELLA hasn’t done a lot wrong since scoring at Worcester in the spring and this extra half-mile could help her back on to the winning trail.
