With Kieran O'Neill claiming the 5lb, the three-year-old Danceyourselfdizzy looks sure to be thereabouts as he has already finished second in this grade here and at Leicester this season. Red Zeus is only a plater but Hobson has been keeping better company and could easily make his presence felt. Stefanki is another with claims if able to translate some fair all-weather form on to turf and he stays this trip better than The Name Is Frank, but the weights suggest APRIL FOOL should take all the beating. Already successful at Lingfield and Warwick this year, he was clearly flying too high at Haydock last time and will be a lot more at home back at this level.
