Verdict
Rail Dancer has suddenly taken off on the Polytrack at Kempton, winning his last three. Not surprisingly, he's shot up the weights but this doesn't look difficult. Safira Menina doesn't win often but is extremely consistent which is why she's climbed the ratings without winning. YA JAMMEEL has had very little racing and is progressing in leaps and bounds. He's only 5lb higher than when scoring over the track and trip a fortnight ago and can complete a quick double. Milky Way carried a big weight into second place in an amateurs' race at Newbury and wouldn't need much more.
