Verdict
DANSILI DUTCH still looks a shade high in the weights but this is such a poor contest, she may just be good enough. Staffhos has slipped down the handicap but ran a shocker at Redcar last week while Echo Of Lightning has failed to figure off a higher mark since scoring at Musselburgh in April. Cono Zur has looked on the downgrade for some time now and it's even harder to recommend any of the remainder.
