There's not a lot between Transact and Dancing Art on Newcastle running last month but the former is now visored after unseating his rider at Sedgefield subsequently. Pamak D'Airy isn't badly handicapped while Freddie Brown looks the pick of George Charlton's two runners. Silver Steel is likely to need this but Super Baby has been a standing dish around here in the past, though hasn't won for a long time. MOSCOW MISCHIEF's only success over hurdles came on this track and she looked a shade unfortunate to unseat on her chase debut at Musselburgh. Providing that experience hasn't put her off, she could represent some value against more exposed rivals.
