Verdict

BRAZEN IDOL bounced back to form when staying on well for second at Ffos Las 9 days ago and, with the return to 6f in his favour, he is taken to land a third C&D success. The main danger could be Initial Blue, who is respected having won twice here this year, with Diamond Dreamer another to consider from a handy mark.
