Verdict

Seraph turns out quickly following a course and distance win two days ago but might have to give best to Leophin Dancer, with Dafa possibly proving best of the rest. The selection is actually six pounds better off for the short head that Seraph beat him in that race two days ago, so holds an obvious chance of turning the tables. Anniversary Guest has suggested that he can win a race of this nature but remains a maiden after 24 starts and is closely weighted with Royale Pearl based on their Wolverhampton runs of March 29, while Dafa has failed to build on two wins earlier in the year. Eau Pure has been doing well over hurdles but looks opposable overall back on the Flat, but with the others looking ordinary, the scene looks set for Leophin Dancer to gain his revenge.
