Verdict
Dream Composer initiated a double in Class 4 handicaps when scoring over 5f here and ran well on a return visit in higher grade last month. Sir Dancealot, the winner of ten races including the Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster in 2019, was returning from a two-year break at Newcastle ten days ago and would be a threat to all if retaining ability. Recall The Show is up 5lb for landing a Doncaster Class 4 handicap so the vote goes to LAMPANG, a comfortable winner at Ayr on his reappearance before a decent effort in the Wokingham when Chairmanoftheboard was behind.
