Scrooby Baby, Molly Dancer and Maneki Neko are three against the field in a wide open affair and the tentative vote goes to the last named. The selection was a fair fourth on his debut behind Lubek. He is sure to have learnt from the experience, has plenty of scope for improvement and in what looks an easier race he is taken to score. Scrooby Baby rates the main danger on his latest second behind Cupids Glory as that horse has since franked the form but he has had plenty of chances without taking one and for that reason he is opposed. Molly Dancer is a well bred sort being a half sister to Funfair Wane and although she has shown very little she will appreciate there drop to this trip and with her stable back in form it would be no surprise to see her run well. Of the remainder Asian Tiger would have chances at his best but has not progressed as expected, while Plito is from a yard in form and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Maneki Neko.
