Verdict

Tim Easterby has found Danesmead a fair opening to boost his confidence and the Danehill Dancer colt may be too experienced for the likes of Hoh Bleu Dee and Treasure House at this stage. Danesmead has held his form well since ridding himself of the maiden tag at Doncaster earlier in the season and this ease in grade can give him a lift at his close up efforts in the Goffs Challenge and Weatherbys Super Sprint. His chance looks almost too obvious but Danesmead is a likeable sort who should be simply too good for the opposition today.
