Verdict
Donagh O'Connor steered Dashwood to a narrow victory last month, though his mount looked as though he needed every yard of the mile that night. A recent line of form just gives him the edge over Indian Landing, though the latter is better over this trip. Corker Hill could also do with another furlong but Political Policy is well handicapped if returning to form and his yard won this a year ago. TWISTSANDTURNS (NAP) was carrying a big weight against older horses when scoring for the second time over a mile here three weeks ago. He is just as effective over tonight's trip and, though 7lb higher, looks set to complete the hat-trick. Burren View Lady has been steadily dropping down the weights since arriving from Tim Easterby's yard and will be winning sooner rather than later.
