In depth
Verdict
Belvedere Blast has finished second twice around here this summer and won at Hexham in between. Mac Suibhne won over a shorter trip here at the start of the month and was then a close fourth at Worcester. Belles Benefit was second on her handicap debut but may be too close in the weights to LANDEN CALLING (NAP) if Fergal O’Brien’s mare can reproduce her Uttoxeter form here.
