In depth

Verdict

Blue Sky Thinking is on a roll at present and can complete a five-timer at the expense of Nevinstown, with Top Jaro and Homecroft Boy perhaps a couple that can get involved as well. This moderate claimer should be well within the capabilities of Blue Sky Thinking who has not looked back since scoring in similar company on the all-weather at Wolverhampton in March. He quickly adapted to Turf when adding to his haul at Newcastle three weeks ago, and in his current mood will surely take all the beating. If there is a danger, it could well be Nevinstown who showed improvement when second at Musselburgh last time. However, that was a seller, and he will have to find more to score, even at this lowly level. Top Jaro is held by the selection on Wolverhampton April running, while Homecroft Boy is still a maiden and did not respond to a first-time visor at Leicester last time. The market will reveal if there are any more potential threats, but Blue Sky Thinking has obvious claims.
