Plenty with claims but PRESCIENCE is the least exposed and gets the nod on that basis. He was third at Lingfield on his first start on the all-weather and further progress is expected now handicapping. Lucky Henry has a shout on his recent placed efforts and Able Dash went close at Goodwood earlier off a similar mark to today's. Leighterton is usually thereabouts at this level and it's too soon to write of Barefoot Dancer back over today's trip and dropped in class. Aussie Andre is another dropping down a grade and won his maiden over track and trip earlier.
