Not the strongest of events, but proven over this trip and on fast ground, Salix Dancer looks the one to be with. He was a shade unlucky at Nottingham last time, (short of room as the pace lifted), and he will never have a better chance of losing his maiden tag. Extremist has looked slow to date, but is open to improvement at this trip, while the filly Sweetstock also takes a step up in trip, having been found wanting for pace around Lingfields sharp track. This galloping circuit will suit her much better. Bobsleigh, all at sea on soft ground last time, will appreciate the faster ground here and is another one in with a shout.
