        Verdict

        Wolf River is taken to land the opener with Tarkamara and Dirty Dancing the obvious dangers. The selection has had three runs to date and has performed with credit on all occasions. He has exerience on this surface in the past and his latest effort when second to Snaffy at Newmarket really caught the eye and if reproducing the same level of form he should break his maiden tag. Tarkamara showed form last year as a two year old in maidens but was a disappointment on her seasonal reappearence. Having said that this is a drop in grade so any market moves should be noted. Dirty Dancing ran with credit on his debut when sixth of ten at Lingfield on the all weather and will improve for the experience but he might find a couple with a little more class. So for the winner we return to Wolf River as the likely winner.
