Verdict
Dashing Poet has finished runner-up over track and trip since winning at Southwell in December. Mrs Benson was third on the former occasion and both are worthy of consideration in this. Helfire is creeping closer and may figure on her second start after wind surgery while Cheerfilly is dropped back in trip on her reappearance and debut for Archie Watson’s yard. But GOLDEN NECTAR (NAP) will be sharper for last month’s length defeat at Kempton and having been beaten only a head over track and trip last summer, Laura Mongan’s mare may prove good enough with Luke Morris taking over the reins today.
