Verdict

Not a hot handicap in truth and from a shortlist of Dance And Dance, Mozayada and DIG DEEP it is the last-named who edges the vote. John Quinn's gelding has plenty of experience on his side which may help him defy a 4lb rise in the weights for a recent Chepstow win. On his form in 2007 he still looks to be fairly handicapped and at seven years of age he is unlikely to be over the hill just yet. Desert Falls steps up in trip following a one-paced third at Redcar last time out, West End Lad is a course and distance winner who has been holding his form fairly well all year and Russell Kennemore is back on board, whilst Tourist would be a big player if repeating his short-head second to Forgotten Voice in April. Dance And Dance has missed a couple of recent engagements, presumably down to prevailing soft ground, so if conditions stay quick here then he must be considered, as should Mount Hadley who is better than recent runs at Windsor and Goodwood might suggest. Any market moves for Moonage Daydream or This Ones For Eddy should be noted, whilst Mozayada is well-treated compared to her all-weather rating but she is engaged on Thursday afternoon at Southwell and her participation may be in doubt. An open handicap, where Dig Deep can live up to his name once again.
