Verdict

A difficult little race to solve with all seven runners holding some sort of a chance. Alan Swinbank's What-A-Dancer holds more solid claims than most after placed efforts in good handicaps at Newmarket and Newcastle on his last two starts. Ian Balding's Manicani is still yet to open his account but has been running well in defeat of late and has the assistance of Kieren Fallon, while Cashmere is less exposed than most of these. Young Alex is probably better on the all-weather than on turf.
