This won't take much winning and there seems little point in opposing CORKY DANCER, a wide-margin victor over track and trip last month. He's been raised 8lb but Jason Maguire takes over the reins and few of his rivals arrive in any kind of form. Solway Dornal is a possible exception having finished third over fences here on Saturday, though he was beaten 23 lengths. Bob's Ticket was third over course and distance last month but is struggling to get off the mark under Rules.
