Westfield Dancer should be up to landing the nightcap with Check Up and Prime Bere also considered. The selection is from a stable that are in flying form at present and he still looks to be on a handy mark despite a 7lbs penalty for his most recent win. He is chasing the hat-trick tonight and we see no reason to oppose him. Prime Bere did not have the race run to suit at Hereford last time so that run can be forgiven and if they go a true gallop she should go well. Check Up ran a blinder last time at Southwell behind Ricardo's Chance and if he can improve again he should be thereabouts at the finish. Gold Again ran well enough last time to suggest that he get competitive for a place, but Westfield Dancer is in great form and can win again.
