Verdict

BAKER BLUE has been running well in competitive sprint handicaps this year and has all the hallmarks of one that should be suited by this track so he's taken to prove too speedy for the thriving Aces Wild and 8-time course winner Roman Dragon, neither of whom are ideally berthed.

2	Useful sprinter who made all for both his career wins. Solid fourth in better race than this at York last month when raced freely before hanging left so this first try at this track really should suit him and he could be hard to peg back if able to get to the lead from stall 7. 1st Pick 2 Baker Blue Jockey: Edward Greatrex Trainer: Dylan Cunha J: Edward Greatrex T: Dylan Cunha	95	-	-	-	14%	13/2

10	Won 3 of his last 4 starts, including when recording a second C&D success in July, defying a double-figure draw for a career-best effort. Up 4 lb and hiked in grade but hard to rule out in current heart. 2nd Pick 10 Aces Wild (Ire) Jockey: Finley Marsh Trainer: Adrian Wintle J: Finley Marsh T: Adrian Wintle	95	-	-	-	17%	5/1

1	8-time course winner who won over 5f at the May meeting from 1 lb higher mark. Below best over longer trips since but could well bounce back returned to the minimum trip assuming stall 9 doesn't prove too prohibitive. 3rd Pick 1 Roman Dragon Jockey: David Probert Trainer: Hugo Palmer J: David Probert T: Hugo Palmer	98	-	-	-	14%	13/2
