WA trainer Dan Morton is quietly confident Scenic Blast can 'do a Choisir' and take out the big Royal Ascot sprint. He says: He is a good horse and deserves his chance to come and try in these better races...He has similar form lines to Choisir and the races he won during the autumn were against the best sprinters around, so there are strong form lines...He arrived here two weeks ago today and travelled over great...The first week he was here the weather was beautiful which made it easier for him. Ascot seems a very forgiving track with a good surface, and racing over five or six furlongs is ideal...Amour Propre and Tax Free are both there and there are a few serious chances in the race, but if we get a clear passage through then we will be thereabouts.'
