SNOW DANCER is weighted to reverse placings with Formidable Guest and is taken to land the opener, while Ridgeway Jazz cannot be discounted. The selection is 3lbs better off for a neck beating when the pair met a little over a month ago, and she has a particular liking for this circuit. The trip and surface appear ideal and we will take her to go in. Formidable Guest also loves it here and won't be far away if reproducing just about any of his last six outings, and he is very much respected in opposition. Ridgeway Jazz is another course and distance scorer but he races from the same mark as when beaten last time and although we can see him going well he might just come up short. Amber Moon looks to have been harshly dealt with by the assessor after a handicap win followed by a claiming success, while Giddywell needs a drop in the weights and Garra Molly looks to have more potential for improvement and could show up well. Snow Dancer can land the prize.
