Verdict

A number of these have been plying their trade on the all-weather, with mixed results. Dashing Poet arrives of wins at Chelmsford and Wolverhampton, however, and Snoozy Sioux got off the mark under Noel Garbutt at Lingfield. Tea El Tee showed a little improvement last time at Kempton while Percy Toplis is back in the right grade. BEACH DANCER is a headstrong sort so dropping back to 5f may well help his cause. He makes his handicap off a plater’s mark and is better than that.
