This is anybody's race and only a speculative vote goes to topweight LORD OF THE DANCE. He scored over 7f at Lingfield last week but won over track and trip in December. He makes more appeal than Divine Rule, who was winning for only the second time in 38 attempts when successful here last time. Divine Pamina has a shout on last year's best form and Hawk Moth can figure off his current mark. Bloodsweatandtears has returned a losing favourite the last twice and will be looking to make amends while the likes of Unlimited and Fonterutoli are others with a chance.
