Humanity has won both starts on the Polytrack since blinkers were added to a tongue-tie and there looks to be more to come. Shadow Dance has been raised 9lb for winning easily at Haydock while Alsakib and the Irish filly Satin have gone up the same amount after scoring at Ascot and Leopardstown respectively. DENMARK was left to make the running in the St Leger last month but had placed in tough handicaps before that including a second at York to a subsequent Listed winner so the Ballydoyle colt gets another chance back at this level. Westerton put a poor run behind him at Doncaster last time and is preferred to Lucky Fifteen of the rest.
