      Verdict

      Northwest Frontier has won three times this year but on fast ground and Arrowtown makes more appeal after winning over 1m4f at Thirsk recently as she went close over 2m at York last year. Today’s going is also a worry for Dalshand while Dominating has struggled to reproduce last season’s best form. TAXMEIFYOUCAN enjoyed a successful 2017 when winning four times on the Flat. Keith Dalgleish’s charge has gone well fresh before when making a successful reappearance over hurdles back in February and there looks more to come from him back on the level with the underfoot conditions in his favour.
