Verdict
Cahala Dancer returns to action 10lb higher than when scoring in soft ground here over a year ago now. AFRICAN SHOWGIRL landed a double in August including a success over course and distance and can be forgiven a poor effort over 1m2f in testing ground at Chepstow last time. She can bounce back in this. Prince Of Cardamom also doubled-up in July but has finished behind Edge at Salisbury since then and the latter went in again at Ffos Las a fortnight ago. Kempton winner Music Major makes a belated debut on Turf and Tee It Up Tommo has done all his winning on the all-weather so far.
