In depth
Verdict
Ten To The Dozen has been running much better than the numbers suggest and he can get the better of Royal Tavira Girl and Legal Lover. The selection is now down to his lowest ever mark of 49 following nine unplaced efforts. However his latest run behind Dudley Docker in a better race at Haydock was a decent effort and he could be on the the way back. Legal Lover always has to be respected in this type of company and he does like it round here. However a bigger threat may be Royal Tavira Girl. She ran a very good race on her return to the track here earlier this month and should strip a lot fitter this afternoon. Corrib and Danawi are others in with each-way claims, however it could be time for Ten To The Dozen to finally lose his maiden tag and he gets our vote.
