In depth

Verdict

He Can Dance was beaten only a neck here on his handicap debut and should go close again while Highly Dancer has been raised 5lb for beating Say It As It Is at Wolverhampton and the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms. RIVER WHARFE (NAP) didn’t appreciate the drop back to 6f on his debut for a new yard but was beaten only a head in a higher grade contest over course and distance before that with a couple of subsequent winners behind. He gets another chance on that form with the unexposed Shimla Rolann perhaps best of the rest.
