Verdict
SIOUX WARRIOR finished runner-up again when failing to threaten the winner at Chester but this isn’t a strong maiden and he gets another chance. Art Historian showed some improvement at Pontefract last time while Mart can finish closer if settling better and Noo Point steps up in trip. Dash Power cost 110,000gns so any support for the Hannon newcomer may prove significant.
