Verdict

Danceintothelight got back to winning ways at Catterick last month and has had a run on the Flat since. But he tends to save his best efforts for the North Yorkshire track and may be worth taking on here. The ground has come right for veteran SCRIPTWRITER and he can reverse that Catterick run with Danceintothelight on 13lb better terms and record a fourth course and distance victory in the process. It's Oscar is difficult to predict and Takaatuf usually finds at least one too good so the latter's stablemate River Music may be best of the rest.
