Verdict
NAVAJO WAR DANCE (NAP) returned to form with a second in a tougher contest at Worcester recently and should make another bold bid in this company, confirming latest running with Sweeping Rock in the process. Royal Hall was narrowly beaten at Plumpton last time but has been raised 6lb for that while Soulsaver scored over a longer distance here last month but has been beaten since. Bulletproof was thereabouts in a couple of starts at Newton Abbot last summer but hasn’t raced since.
