Verdict

Dance For Georgie ended last year with a double but is 9lb higher on her return to action. WILLIAM VAN GOGH almost defied an 8lb rise in the weights at Wolverhampton last time having won at the same track before that and Mick Easterby's charge gets the nod dropping back to a mile as Alhaban's victory at Lingfield last month came in a seller. Spavento looks on a fair mark but hasn't raced since July while Running Reef has shown no improvement for his tumble down the weights but course winner Dandarrell may figure on his first start since November.
