Verdict

Dancer In Demand can land the finale at the main expense of Ordination and Dazzling Light. It's difficult to get excited about the remaining runners in this contest and those three stand out on the form that they have shown to date. Ordination did exceptionally well to run the subsequent Group 3 placed Amerigo to half a length on his Yarmouth debut; the pair were clear of the field and a maiden win should be a formality. Dazzling Light made a pleasing debut over ten furlongs here and should show the benefit of that run in due course but may have to settle for a bit part in this event. The form of the selection's debut run is working out at a modest level but this relative of North Light and Cover Up can leave the bare form behind now that he has got a run under his belt and tackles a longer trip. He was the subject of positive bulletins prior to the run but proved weak in the market on the day. Dancer In Demand should be in greater demand today and is taken to steal the limelight.
