London Is Blue emerges as the standout in this 5f handicap, having produced a strong second in a 5f Yarmouth handicap 12 days ago despite a slow start after the blindfold was removed, with a high RPR of 78 and a solid 136lb weight — a marked improvement from his earlier withdrawals. His recent run shows resilience in breaking from stalls and maintaining contact, while his draw of 8 and consistent course and distance record suggest he can operate effectively in the midfield or slightly forward. The main danger comes from Merrimack, who led at Bath and has a strong RPR of 80, while Dark Alley, making his first appearance with cheekpieces, offers a surprise factor with a recent 7th at Windsor and a modest but consistent form over similar ground. Each-way value is present in the lower-rated runners like Magna and Angel Summer, though their form and lack of recent progress limit their appeal.
