In depth

Verdict

Blades Boy can take this finale at the expense of Our Little Secret and King Eric. A modest juvenile, Blades Boy produced a good effort from an unfavourable draw at Hamilton last time out and if he can reproduce that run on similar going, he looks the one to beat in spite of another unfavoured draw. The six pound penalty negated by the apprentice's seven pound claim. Our Little Secret will be interesting if given the office early doors. She ran a fair race on her latest outing at Catterick although the time was particularly slow. King Eric was the subject of a monster gamble at Wolverhampton last week. The money never looked like leaving the bookmakers satchels but the card has been marked. Alexander Capetown is a cast-off from the Barry Hills yard who has made the journey to Sesay to join David Nicholls. The visor has been left off Conjecture after an unsatisfactory race at Lingfield. Diktatit is another horse to have changed stables having left Mick Channon for Jim Goldie's stable. Not too much strength in depth as far as the entry is concerned and we'll take a chance on the apprentice aboard Blades Boy to land the last race on the card.
