3.20 Kempton Doncasaque has struggled a little back in handicaps. Barwell Bridge may be seen in a better light now handicapping, although is closely matched with Doncasaque on recent form. Supernoverre has saved all best form for plating level up to now so is passed over. Perhaps the two most likely winners are Mark Johnston's Bushveld and Gary Moore's Blaise Tower. The former won a maiden in convincing fashion last time out and starts life handicapping off 77. This Cape Cross colt probably has a bit of room for manoevre off that mark, but the lack of form boosts mean I have marginal preference for Blaise Tower, who has been raised only 1 lb for his handicap win last time out. He stayed on well to lead in the final strides so the step up in trip here seems sensible and the plus side of his narrow win (hd) is that he now has to find little improvement to score here off his revised mark. 1 pt win
