Verdict

Dancing Leopard has placed over shorter trips on the Fibresand and can figure having gone close in a handicap at Newcastle earlier but SPEED DATING makes more appeal. The latter has only moderate form elsewhere but last month’s debut appearance at this venue resulted in his first win and Derek Shaw’s grey gets the vote back on this surface. Perregrin and Gweedore return from lay-offs and both make their handicap debuts with the former stepping up from the minimum trip and the latter debuting for new connections.
