    In depth

    Verdict

    SAMBA DANCER (NAP) has gone well for today’s rider in the past and is likely to have come on a bundle for a reappearance run at Warwick. Balkardy has won races at Fontwell and Plumpton and the 3lb claim of Isabel Williams will come in handy. The Boola Boss was nibbled at in the market at Worcester last time out so it will be interesting to see if he attracts support again here.
