    Verdict

    Lots of unexposed types, including Zalda, but our shortlist for this includes Crackleando, Ilwadod, Habitual Dancer, Winslow Boy and Cunning Pursuit, but the vote goes to Dunlea Dancer. Dunlea Dancer came good for his stable last time, showing in the process that he appreciated today's trip and is sure to make a bold bid to follow up. Crackleando should join him at the head of affairs and, having improved for the step up to this trip last time, looks set to run well again, but John Dunlop's Penny Stall has yet to show too much in the way of ability. Ilwadod has a touch of seconditis but his turn will come one day. Euippe is closely weighted with him on the basis of their latest runs at Yarmouth. Habitual Dancer remains consistent and actually holds Crackleando on the basis of their Pontefract runs on heavy in April over 12 furlongs. Winslow Boy has been raised five pounds for a narrow Yarmouth win which makes him vulnerable, while Muslin has been crying out for this type of trip but has a bit to prove on the balance of his form. And Cunning Pursuit is now a pound better off for the short head that he was beaten by Winslow Boy at Yarmouth, so he is entitled to some consideration. Given that you know that his horses generally keep on galloping, Dunlea Dancer might just provide the answer in a competitive finale to the card.
