      Verdict

      MAMBO DANCER has now won two of his last three starts after scoring over today’s trip at Wolverhampton. He‘s upped a further 5lb but is still preferred to Thahab Ifraj. who won over hurdles in August but has yet to score on the Flat. Azam was less than convincing on his only previous start over 2m while though Vettori Rules won over track and trip last month he has run way below par in a couple of subsequent outings.
