Domino Dancer has strong claims judged on his latest third at Stratford, but JUST BEWARE is preferred. She has gone close at this track on her last three starts and though 9lb higher than her win here in November, this looks easier than her recent tasks and Zoe Davison's mare gets the nod. Airedale Lad popped up over these hurdles last month though resorted straight back to his old self with a tame effort last time, but Celtic Ballad showed improved form at Lingfield recently and could figure.
