A large turnout for this handicap sprint and luck in running may well prove important, RADIYKA is not easy to assess as the only three-year-old in the line-up - an interesting decision by Dermot Weld. However, she scored nicely over course and distance on reappearance and the two stall looks beneficial. She could prove nicely treated and gets the nod. Dandyville, also a course and distance winner, has been off for seven months but boasts decent form claims for his new yard, whereas Half Nutz has fitness assured and this course and distance winner rates a key player in first-time cheekpieces. Rough Diamond and Karlsberg are each-way hopes in a wide-open affair.
