Verdict

MEDICI DANCER just failed to catch an odds-on favourite in testing ground at Newcastle last time. The third-placed horse was beaten a distance and Tim Easterby's filly looks to have leading claims under today's conditions. Jockey bookings suggests she's preferred to her stablemates though Faffa finished a length ahead of Accelerant, the best of Kevin Ryan's three entries, at York earlier this month. Divine Reward looks a threat on his debut third at Salisbury and Art Storm is worth a second glance in the betting on his first start.
