Verdict
Most can be given a chance in a trappy finale but IRIS DANCER suggested she's ready to strike when a good third at Ripon over this trip last month and Amie Waugh again takes off a handy 5lb. Her last success came at this venue, a mark of 65 is fair and she has conditions to suit. The recent form figures of Two Summers speak for themselves and a repeat of her strong runner-up effort last time at Doncaster would put her bang in contention, especially with Ryan Sexton's 3lb claim factored in. Slainte Mhath has hit form with a vengeance the last twice and has only been raised 1lb for a narrow Thirsk defeat last time over this trip. She's shortlisted. Impressor is not the most reliable but has place claims at his best.
