Verdict
The Way You Dance posted a better effort at Lingfield last time and is preferred to recent 1m6f winner Giving Back, who was well beaten over 2m before that. Norab was placed over track and trip last month but is 4lb higher and CASA COMIGO has been raised the same amount for winning at Lingfield last time. But the latter is progressing well and John Best’s charge is taken to go in again and confirm latest running with Danglydontask in the process. Cochise may improve now handicapping and Give Battle is preferred to King Christophe of the Irish raiders.
