Weetfromthechaff won over C&D a year ago and hinted at a revival when second to Royal Max at Wetherby last month. Carpenter can't be ignored despite top weight but Waldo Winchester has been put up 7lb for winning a novices' handicap here last month, though is another to consider along with Kelso winner Kai Broon. DANCE FOR JULIE is surely worth another chance, however. Ben Haslam's stable is in a good run of form and his progressive four-year-old was a most unlucky loser at Sedgefield last time, unseating Barry Keniry when clear on the run-in and bringing down Words Of Warning. He can land this and get his revenge on eventual second Dream Risk in the process.
