        In depth

        Verdict

        Blythe Spirit gets the confident vote with Mistral Sky, Bob's Buzz and Blue Knight heading the list of dangers. The selection remains well handicapped on his best form despite a penalty for his last win when defeating Bob's Buzz by one and a half lengths. That rival is better off at the weights here and he should get closer but the selection won with a little in hand and from a good draw he is taken to win again. Mistral Sky rates the main danger as he won well last time when defeating Albashoosh but his form on the AW leaves him with a little to find and for that reason he is opposed. Blue Knight is another that could go well as he was a fair fourth last time out in a claimer and with the drop back to the minimum trip sure to suit he has definite place claims. Of the remainder Musical Fair is very well handicapped on her best form so is worth a cautionary look in the market - the same comment applies to Ammenayr and for the winner we return to Blythe Spirit.
