In depth

Verdict

Plenty with a shout in this. Galactic Power bids for hat-trick raised 8lb though an amateur’s allowance negates most of that. Cobra De Mai, Grams And Ounces and Three Colours Red have all been thereabouts off similar marks recently and are others to consider but the vote goes to DANCEINTOTHELIGHT. The latter won one of these events under Abi McCain at Catterick in December and is only 3lb higher than when scoring at Musselburgh subsequently.
