Another weak looking affair and we will take a chance with Elidore, What-A-Dancer and Anduril may be the best of the others. Bryn Palling's six-year-old had shown very little this season until her last effort over course and distance. She was forced to race up the centre and did well under the circumstances to finish in fourth place behind Wind Chimes. She goes on any ground and is worth considering off her current mark. What-A-Dancer ran another decent race at Brighton last week and will be hard to keep out of the money again this afternoon. Anduril comes here in winning form having beaten some solid handicappers at Ayr last time out. He should go well despite his six pound penalty. Best of the others could be Veiled Applause, but Elidore looked on the way back last time and she gets our vote.
