NORFOLK BLUE shaped well when runner-up at Lingfield last time and with further progress very much on the cards he is taken to deny form choice Hengroin. Dylan Cunha's debutant Champagne Dream also needs factoring in though, especially if the market vibes are positive.

  1. NORFOLK BLUE (IRE)
  2. HENGROIN (IRE)
  3. CHAMPAGNE DREAM
