VAN DIJK has been in good form at this lowly level at Southwell. He’s gone close on this surface in the past and can defy a penalty. Fuwairt disappointed in this grade at Kempton last time while Sharrabang’s earlier classified success came over 7f. Rail Dancer has slipped down the weights and may prove best of the rest given Your Choice looks no nearer recording her first win after 29 attempts.
