Verdict

Premier Danseur is given the narrow vote in this tricky maiden, Royal Acclamation and Stagecoach Topaz could provide most danger. Greg Fairley takes the ride on the selection who boasts a terrific American pedigree. The market will give a good guide to his fitness but this isn't the strongest of contests and he could go in at the first time of asking. Dean McKeown rides the other Johnston horse Stagecoach Topaz, who was well supported on his Chester debut. He was very green in that contest and we should see a better performance this afternoon. Royal Acclamation ran much better than the finishing figure suggests on his debut here earlier this month. With improvement expected he should figure in the finish. Setra Pura and Laureldean Breeze are two others in with a squeak, but we certainly like the breeding of Premier Danseur and he gets our vote.
