DAWN VIEW, unlike any rival, arrives on the back of victory, having scored snugly here last month. She's up 2f in trip now but has gone well over 10f in the past and should provide Marco Ghiani with a good ride. She's been consistent at this level throughout the year too. Thunder Flash has a sound form chance and this is his trip. This is a first start since November though and there's a niggle that his only modest run for Ian Williams came on turf. If all's well, he's a player. Boy George keeps suggesting a win is due but remains 0-21, with only two of those runs on turf. Dancing Jo is 0-14 on turf but holds respectable place claims and will appreciate the step-up in trip.
