Race Tip

DIXIELAND BLUES (8) races for the first time in eleven months. Won a 7f handicap at Kempton Park AW by 2L and holding winning form at this venue is expected to be in the finish once more. LEGAL REFORM (2) came out on top of a course and distance handicap by 0. 5L during March. Returns from a 156-day layoff and rates highly. May complete a double. VALVANO (1) is down in standard after finishing sixth attempting the 1m Lincoln Heritage Handicap at Doncaster in March. One to consider. SOVEREIGN OCEAN (11) lost out by 0. 5L finishing runner-up contesting a 7f handicap at Chester latest. Solid claims of going one better.
