Verdict
DANCINGINTHEWOODS (NAP) won at Newmarket last year having landed this race earlier. He returned to action with a close-up fourth at Headquarters and Dean Ivory’s charge drops down in class for this. Jack's Point scored at Lingfield last month but has a poor strike-rate on Turf and Crazy Luck is preferred with a recent comeback run at Windsor under her belt. Al Simmo rattled up a treble last summer but has something to prove off her current mark as does City Walk.
