Dansimar, Let It Be and Toboggan Lady look the three to concentrate on in this handicap and the vote is given to Dansimar. The selection was a fair third behind Ravena last time out doing all her best work at the finish, she looks sure to improve for this longer trip and under conditions that suit she is taken to score. Let It Be rates the main danger on her latest third behind Hi Dancer but she has had plenty of chances off this sort of mark without taking one and is opposable on that basis. Toboggan Lady is another that could go well on her latest second behind Franchoek especially if she improves for the fitting of first time cheekpies. Of the remainder Rajam is from a shrewd in form yard and should be atched in the market but he may need the run after a 302 day break and for the winner we return to Dansimar.
