It is possible that NATURALLY BLOND may have to put up 2lb overweight but even so, the ten-year-old looks to have an excellent chance of going one better than when narrowly failing to beat a well handicapped rival at Tramore last Saturday. This is a slightly shorter trip and is expected to suit even better. His chances may be flagged up by the performances of Deauville Society and Galuppi in the previous race. You always take a bit of a chance backing Fleurys Fort these days, however, the ten-year-old has produced some better runs of late suggesting he could be ready to get back to winning ways. My Lovely Boy has improved leaps and bounds of late and has chances.
