Verdict
THE WAY YOU DANCE is making good progress after a ponderous start over hurdles and should confirm Worcester running with Sarpech on identical terms. With Sean Corby taking off 3lb, he's getting 6lb from easy Kelso winner Makethedifference who is much more exposed and has never won outside of Scotland since arriving in this country. Istimraar gave supporters of the odds-on Hygrove Percy a scare at Fontwell 11 days ago but is 2lb higher. King Simba and Civil War look to have it all to do.
