Danzantrice can land this opener at the expense of Mighty Moon and Kristensen. The selection is bidding for his hat-trick after wins over course and distance and at Ayr last time out. For his latest win when getting the better of Rare Coincidence by three quarters of a length he has only been raised a further two pounds and we feel is still one step ahead of the handicapper so for that reason is one to stay on the right side of. Mighty Moon broke his maiden tag at Newmarket last time out and now races off a four pound higher mark. Again that looks lenient and if able to capitalize with confidence after that performance then he could pose as a real danger to the selection so any market moves should be noted. Kristensen caught the eye last time out when second to Onyergo here over one furlong further and another bold bid is expected but for the winner we return to Danzantrice.
