Verdict

Heartbeat, Dances With Angels and Shammit¿s All Over are three against the field in another poor affair and the tentative vote is given to Heartbeat. The selection was a fair third behind Dial Square last time out doing all his best work at the finish. The step up in trip should suit and he will be hard to beat. Dances with Angels rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Make My Hay as that form has since been franked. Shaamit¿s All Over is another worthy of respect on his latest fourth behind Circulate but he has yet to prove he stays this far and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Vittorioso and Islands Farewell are from shrewd yards and are worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Heartbeat.
