Verdict

DANCING WAVES showed the benefit of her opening run when slamming her rivals at Down Royal. She's in the Moyglare and this looks an ideal stepping stone. Hydrangea didn't get the best of runs at Galway and may not have been suited by soft ground so she should improve though she was behind Light Laughter on her debut in a strong maiden over 6f here last month and Dermot Weld's filly looks the main threat receiving 4lb. David Wachman's newcomer White Satin Dancer cost 260,000gns and is the ninth foal of a mare who has produced winners with her previous eight.
