    Verdict

    Dazzling Dan looked certain to win at Doncaster when going clear but was caught right on the line by Moraawed, who is 2lb worse off. There's nothing between them while course and distance winner Luxor is a progressive dual winner from a yard in top form who should be winning again soon. James Watt won his first two starts and, though unsuccessful subsequently, he's very consistent at this level and should go well. Top Breeze wasn't suited by soft ground and Chester on his hat-trick bid and though he beat YOUSINI a length over the track and trip earlier the latter is better off at the weights and didn't have the advantage of an earlier run. That was a fine effort from Kevin Ryan's charge and he's taken to go one better.
