Verdict

The Dancing Poet has won over further here and also over the course and distance last summer. He's only 1lb higher so has to be on the shortlist. Pot Of Paint has never won but was only just touched off in a better handicap at Haydock in June though hasn't been seen since the following month. Wise Eagle had the pace to score over a mile at Lingfield last February and though his recent victories have been over further, including a jumper's bumper at Newcastle, he's been in such good form that he'll take some beating though this trip on quick ground could hand the initiative to MOLINARI. He was having his first start since transferred from William Muir when beaten a head on fast ground over the track and trip a fortnight ago and can go one better from just 1lb higher.
