Verdict

NORTH AMERICA is interesting now going handicapping and his attacking style could easily pay dividends on this track. Interconnection will enjoy the drying ground but may be a couple of pounds too high in the weights now. Ocean Applause is starting look well treated again, however, and should make his presence felt while Banditry has been knocking on the door. Dandy won easily under Cathy Gannon at Chepstow 10 days ago but now has a penalty to overcome. Triple Dip has been treading water off this mark lately but is still preferred to If I Were A Boy.
