Verdict
Those with the best form have something to prove over today's trip but a chance is taken that FLOATING BALLERINO turns out to be best suited. He came up short when runner-up over a mile at Nottingham last time but this faster surface may prove more to his liking. Left Defender was placed over 7f at Newmarket last time and that looks stronger form than Lucky Visione's victory in a Yarmouth maiden. The remainder will do well to get involved with handicap debutant Rising Dawn perhaps the best of them.
