4.35 Keeneland Phoenix Stakes (Group 1) 6f

Arizona Blaze: Battle-hardened colt represents same connections as last year’s winner, Bucanero Fuerte. Finished a short-head in front of Whistlejacket when third in the Norfolk Stakes before running below that level in the Railway Stakes, though probably didn’t see the best of him when racing alone for much of the journey – and he showed an excellent attitude to get back up for third. Probably overpriced, even though his First Flier Stakes run behind Whistlejacket leaves him with work to do.
