Verdict

PICANSORT has yet to score on Turf but will not get many better opportunities than this. He arrives on the back of a win on the Polytrack and can race off a 20lb lower mark back on this surface. Danzoe finished ahead of Give Us A Belle when fourth at Nottingham last month while Alpha Delta Whisky should improve on his recent comeback effort at Lingfield. Magical Speedfit is a course winner and Dreams Of Glory is on a decent mark, though both will be better for the outing.
