Verdict
Dandy carries a penalty as he bids for a hat-trick after a couple of wins over 1m2f. He may well be taken on for the lead here by Amoya, who faded in the closing stages trying to make all over today's trip at Chester on Saturday. A decent pace should set the race up nicely for NO SUCH NUMBER, who won his maiden over 1m5f at Bath last season and has a recent pipe-opener under his belt. Julia Feilden's charge gets the nod as both Dubai Glory and Thecornishcowboy arrive badly out of sorts.
