Verdict
Today’s underfoot conditions may prove problematic for recent Catterick third Calliope while Palindrome was well beaten at Ayr just three days ago having gone close on a couple of occasions before that. TRADITIONAL DANCER should have no trouble with the going and the four-time winning hurdler is taken to open his account on the Flat having gone close at Carlisle last time. Princess Nearco has struggled since winning at Thirsk in June but Irish raider Last Garrison could go well under Paul Hanagan.
