None of these have looked like winning so far but DASHING DUSTY was beaten a couple of lengths over 7f at Kempton in between his more normal modest efforts and gets a token vote in a really weak handicap. Roseau City steps up in trip but slips further down the weights while Haven's View may do better over this extra distance. Rose Of Shiraz came up against higher rated horses when fourth in a seller last time and Wilfred Owen may improve now handicapping.
