      Verdict

      Tamarai Dancer is selected over stablemates Mganga and Kashmina in another ordinary contest. It would also be interesting to see any support for Ten Spot, who had a legitimate excuse for her latest performance, which is easy to forgive and is best forgotten. Of more concern is a lack of winning form on turf and she has a bit to prove. Kashmina also fits that profile but she is relatively unexposed and may have more to offer. Mganga has slightly stronger claims and appears the best option from Mick Channon¿s pair. She is only 3lb higher than for her Redcar success last September and, as there is little strength in depth, she can at least make the frame in this company. However, Tamari Dancer just edges the vote for betting purposes on this occasion. Ralph Beckett¿s charge will love the conditions, has been given a chance by the handicapper and, with her stable in such good form, the mount of Seb Sanders has all the right credentials to round off the meeting on a high.
