In depth
Verdict
Hard to be confident about any of these. DANGEROUS TO KNOW improved for the extra distance when third over 1m3f at Warwick last time and gets the token vote on that basis. Silver Six also made the frame on his latest start when runner-up in a seller at this track but Angel Cake was beaten out of sight despite finishing third at Wolverhampton recently. Lady Romanza has bits of form on Polytrack that may see her figure but those to keep an eye on in the betting include Imperial Wave, Red Mystique and Despatch who all step up in trip for their handicap debuts.
