Dangerous Age landed a double at Wolverhampton at the end of last year and has subsequently gone close off similar marks to today. She was beaten only a short-head by Triple Dream last month and the latter had found Picansort just too good at this track earlier. Fair Value finished ahead of Picansort when third over track and trip last time and is preferred to the returning pair of Go Nani Go and Monumental Man. Away from all the collateral form, NAFA was eased down once beaten in a Class 3 sprint last time. She'd earlier gone close to catching Tax Free at Kempton and can come out best here with a similar effort.
