A pretty modest contest and we will take a chance with Dance Sauvage, Me Fein and Parapaazi could be the main rivals. The selection comes here in decent form having finished runner up on his last two outings. His best run was over this trip at Hamilton when behind Princely Ted and with conditions in his favour today a repeat effort could be good enough. Barney Curley's runner Me Fein landed a massive gamble at Lingfield last time out. This looks a bit tougher but if the money comes again take note. The top-weight here is Paparaazi. he is not the most consistent of performers but did win off a mark of 65 earlier in the season so is not badly treated this afternoon. This is certainly not a race to get too heavily involved in as far as betting goes, but Dance Sauvage should give supporters a good run for their money.
