In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest gets proceedings under way and many would have a chance on there best form. However a lot of them have been hopelessly out of form of late, so we will take a chance on Rappongi Dancer. The gelding from the bang in form MaryRevely yard showed a modicum of ability on his first two runs over hurdles before he become disappointing. However with the yard now back in top form he is taken to score in a race that will not take a lot of winning. Tell Nothing is an Irish raider that has been finishing in mid-division in much better handicaps. He is sure to be suited by the step down in grade and he should not be far away with Jim Crowley taking the ride. Looking Deadly is another to consider he saves his best form for this track and with conditions in his favour he has definite place claims. Ashtoreth is another that has shown a little ability but all his best efforts have come with cut in the ground. Of the remainder Freya Alex is from a yard that does well with it's hurdlers and any market confidence should be noted.
