Another small field goes to post for this race but all can be given chances on their best form but the principals appear to be First Order, Oro Verde and Aces Dancing and we will take a chance on Oro Verde. The colt from the bang in form Richard Hannon yard was a good fourth in a better race behind Promenade last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. First Order rates the main danger he won well last time out when defeating Times Review but he may struggle to give seven pounds and a beating to Oro Verde. Aces Dancing ran a if she did not stay the six furlongs last time when well beaten and Mick Channon's charge is sure to be suited by the return to the minimum trip but she is one of the most exposed in the field and for that reason is opposed on this occasion, the same comment applies to Big Bradford. Molly Moon could also go well as her form at Lingfield has since been well advertised by Silver Prelude and Trotters Bottom.
