No recent winning form to analyse and nothing in general of any real strength apart from a couple of performances, including the latest run of HENRY OLIVER. He's once again partnered by Richard Johnson after the combination finished runner-up at Wincanton last time after trying to make all, tactics that will be suited to today's venue if repeated. A 7lb rise seems harsh for that latest defeat but he looks to be an improver and this doesn't rate a deep race. Ladies Dancing is consistent but her 1-25 record over timber is a concern and Cruise In Style makes more appeal having gone well on each of her last three starts. Candelita is not always guaranteed to put her best foot forward but would definitely be in with a shout if doing so.
