The final race on the card appears to be wide open but a chance is taken with Nurzyk against the topweight Chanticlier and the consistent Graceful Dancer who may need the run after a break. Nurzyk's stable are on fire and the Polish-bred opened his account on these shores over a marathon trip at Sedgefield. He was all out to score and it is debatable whether he can run up a sequence, but he should just about squeeze out another victory before the handicapper gets a grip. Chanticlier was fancied on his reappearance at Hereford but the whispers proved unfounded as he was turned over. He did not run that bad mind and should go well despite topweight. Graceful Dancer was not at ease on the faster ground at Folkestone last time but any more rain will see him go close despite a two month absence.
