      Verdict

      Essme had slipped down the weights and took advantage to win a lower grade contest over track and trip last week. Juan Les Pins posted one of his better efforts over 6f last time while Shuv H'penny King has been thereabouts over a mile lately. DANCING TO WIN won a novices race over course and distance last summer and has been competing in tougher handicaps than this since. She gets another chance dropping down in class on only her second start for Jane Chapple-Hyam’s yard.
