Formscan - BLENHEIM STAR arrives in excellent form having shown a liking for unconventional tracks in the shape of Ripon and Brighton, winning three of her last four outings. The most recent of those was arguably a career-best performance and William Knight's filly doesn't appear to have finished her progression just yet. Hello Cotai was runner-up here over 1m2f last week and has the assistance of Oisin Murphy in the saddle, while Uncle Dick and handicap debutant Seamore are others for the shortlist.
