Lincoln Park won at Chester recently having earlier finished second to MR WAGYU at Haydock. The latter has subsequently placed in a decent sprint at Hamilton and should be in the mix again in an open contest. Dazzling Dan has been thereabouts since winning over a longer trip at Yarmouth and Dancinginthewoods won at Leicester earlier while Evasive Power landed a lower grade race at Epsom and is preferred to the unpredictable One Night Stand.
