      Verdict

      A tight handicap but there's no denying the chance of DANCING PRIMO. Mark Brisbourne's mare scored on good ground here in June and wasn't quite suited to dropping back in trip at Yarmouth last time. Boa is running well enough to prove a big threat and with her suitability for the trip guaranteed she should be in the shake-up and there was obviously something amiss with Gems at Brighton as she started favourite following early stronger form. She was only a neck behind Laverre over the C&D in May and the pair are very evenly matched on that run.
