Very few with plausible chances in this race and Lucayan Dancer can see off Saviour Sand and Sabre Light. Lucayan Dancer accounted for Cheshire Prince at Chester last month and with that rival taking a big prize at the North West track last weekend, the form looks solid and we take the Dandy Nicholls inmate to score despite being somewhat unfavoured at the weights. Saviour Sand is a good traveller in his races. His win record illustrates how he doesn't quite find as much as he often promises. Sabre Light was an emphatic winner of a nine furlong event at this track. The caliber of opposition was much weaker than this and more is required. Course winner, Jarvo, has to be respected. Manathon has yet to show much since leaving France. Beggars End hails from a yard that are sending out winners so it would be no surprise to see some measure of improvement. Wogan's Sister has at least won a race. The remainder look very difficult to fancy at tonight's terms. Lucayan Dancer secures the vote.
