      Verdict

      Crocus Time never got close over 6f at Thirsk but was staying on as was Calafrio over the same trip at Pontefract. The Dubawi filly DANCE SEQUENCE is a full-sister to a winner and half-sister to two others and jockey bookings suggest she's more forward than stablemate Race The Wind. However, the latter is related to several high-class winners and it would be no surprise to see her come out on top. Upscale is by Kingman out of a Group 3 winner over this trip.
