Verdict

This is not an easy race to get a firm handle on but another chance is given to Arabian Dancer, with others to consider being Brooklime, Penang Sapphire, Viking Spirit and Campeon. The selection comes firmly into the reckoning based on her fifth in the Cherry Hinton Stakes two runs ago but then let herself, and that form, down when finishing only third when stepped up to a mile at Yarmouth last time. If you are prepared to forgive her that run, she must hold a solid chance here back at this six-furlong trip although, of course, she is unproven on good to soft. Based on his Windsor run of three days ago, Brooklime is improving, so he can be given a chance, as can Viking Spirit and Campeon, who were separated by only a short head at York last time. Of the others, Watchmyeyes has shown promise but will need to show more to feature, a similar comment applying to San Deng, while Penang Sapphire also showed a bit of promise on the all-weather on his debut and, well-bred, is more than likely going to improve. Hillabilla and Lyric Dances are others with interesting breeding so watch the betting with regard to their chances but, once again, we are prepared to give Arabian Dancer another chance.
