Unless either Majestic Vision or Can Can Flyer show dramatic improvement on their debut efforts this should go to Clog Dance, who looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to finally open her account. One disappointing effort on soft ground apart, the selection has shown steady improvement in each of her races and, with further improvement not out of the question, she looks the one to be on. Bill Bennett has just 2lbs to find with John Gosden's filly on official BHB ratings but lacks the scope of the daughter of Woodman. Sweet Fury and Dolly Wotnot have both shown signs of ability but need to step up on previous form to trouble the selection and a bigger threat is likely to come from one of the less exposed runner sin the field. With none of the newcomers making much appeal, the most logical dangers appear to be the Peter Harris-trained Majestic Vision and Mark Johnston's Can Can Flyer. The latter ran a promising race on his debut when mid-division in a Doncaster maiden and should have learned from the experience but he may do better over middle distances next term, while Majestic Vision ran a promising race on his debut when a well beaten third at Nottingham, staying on in the latter stages. However, Clog Dance sets a fair standard and will be tough to beat.
