Verdict

Verdict

Bolt Of Blue failed to land a blow when fifth on his introduction at Yarmouth, but the booking of Billy Loughnane suggests a big run could be in the offing. Even so, NAVAL COP looks the way to go. Andrew Balding's filly showed bags of pace when weakening into sixth over 6f at York earlier this month and the drop to the minimum distance might just work the oracle. Newcomer Shaqra Queen warrants a market check.

Top Tip: Naval Cop (6)
Watch out for: Bolt Of Blue (1)
