In race four on the card, Dressed To Dance is selected ahead of Goose Green and Poppets Sweetlove. Dressed To Dance looks to be a big player here based on his second at Ayr last time over six furlongs. He stays this trip and races off the same mark today. Goose Green has to dropped to below a wininng two-year-old mark and, even though more-ecent efforts have been tame, he showed a bit more sparkle last time and can be considered on that basis. Poppets Sweetlove can also be considered and she could be reasonably treated based on Warwick maiden win. Just Oscar has shown enough to be considered from his current mark, but Dance Of Dreams still has it to prove on Turf following on from an all-weather win. Give Evidence is one to watch out for in the betting, as is Barry Hills's Danehill Kikin on her handicap debut but, for the selection, we will stick with Dressed To Dance.
